JEE Main 2021 (Online) 26th February Evening Shift Physics - Motion in a Straight Line Question 72 English Explanation
From given information :

For 1st interval

a1=v0t1{a_1} = {{{v_0}} \over {{t_1}}}

v0 = a1 t1 ....... (1)

For 2nd interval

a2=v0t2{a_2} = {{{v_0}} \over {{t_2}}}

v0 = a2 t2 ..... (2)

from (1) & (2)

a1 t1 = a2 t2

t1t2=a2a1{{{t_1}} \over {{t_2}}} = {{{a_2}} \over {{a_1}}}
