The potential energy of a particle varies with distance x from a fixed origin as $\mathrm{V} = \left(\frac{\mathrm{A}\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}}{\mathrm{x} + \mathrm{B}}\right)$ ; where A and B are constants. The dimensions of AB are

• $\frac{{\mathrm{v}}_0}{1 + 2{{\mathrm{ktv}}_0}^2}$

• $\frac{{\mathrm{v}}_0}{\sqrt{1 - 2{{\mathrm{kv}}_0}^2}}$

• $\frac{{\mathrm{v}}_0}{\sqrt{1 + 2{{\mathrm{ktv}}_0}^2}}$

A passenger train is moving at 5 ms^-1 .An express train is travelling at 30 ms^-1, on the same track and rear side of the passenger train at some distance. The driver in express train applied brakes to avoid collision. If the retardation due to brakes is 4 ms^-2 , the time in which the accident is avoided after the application of brakes is

A small block is shot into each of the four tracks as shown below. Each of the  frictionless track rises to the same height. The speed, with which the block enters the tracks, is same in all cases. At the highest point of the track; normal reaction is maximum in
