As we have learnt,

 

Displacement in nth second -

S_{n}= u+\frac{a}{2}(2n-1)
 

- wherein

u= Initial velocity

a= uniform acceleration

n= nth second

 

 Distance travelled in nth second is

 s_n = u + \frac{1}{2}A(2n-1)

Here :

 a = u + \frac{1}{2}(2x -1)A

b = u + \frac{1}{2}(2y -1)A

c = u + \frac{1}{2}(2z -1)A

or 

a = Ax + \left (u-\frac{A}{2} \right ) \\*\Rightarrow ay = Axy + \left(u -\frac{A}{2}\right )y \; \& \; az = Axz + \left(u -\frac{A}{2}\right )z\

Subtracting we get,

a(y-z)= A(xy-xz) + (u - \frac{A}{2})\cdot (y-z)

Similarly,

b(z-x)= A(yz-yx) + (u - \frac{A}{2})\cdot (z-x)

c(x-y)= A(zx-yz) + (u - \frac{A}{2})\cdot (x-y)

Adding these three equations, we get

a(y-z) + b(z-x) + c(x-y) = 0

 


Option 1)

ax = by = cz

Option 2)

a(y-z) + b(z-x) + c(x-y) = 0

Option 3)

ax + by = cz

Option 4)

None of these.
