A particle is dropped vertically from rest from a height. The time taken by it to fall through successive distances of \(1~\text{m}\) each will then be:

1. All equal, being equal to \(\sqrt{2 / g} \) s. 
2. In the ratio of the square roots of the integers \(1,2,3....\)
3. In the ratio of the difference in the square roots of the integers \(\sqrt{1}\)\((\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{1})\),\((\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2})\),\((\sqrt{4}-\sqrt{3})\) \( \ldots\)
4. In the ratio of the reciprocal of the square roots of the integers i.e,... \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1}}\)\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\),\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}} \)

The displacement of a particle as a function of time is shown in the figure. The figure shows that
                      

1. The particle starts with certain velocity but the motion is retarded and finally the particle stops
2. The velocity of the particle is constant throughout
3. The acceleration of the particle is constant throughout
4. The particle starts with constant velocity, then motion is accelerated and finally the particle moves with another constant velocity
