To find the ratio of distance traveled in each 2-second interval, we first need to calculate the total time it takes for the body to fall from a height of 200m.
Using the formula for free fall distance: h = (1/2)gt^2 200 = (1/2)(9.8)t^2 t^2 = 40.82 t ≈ 6.39 seconds
Since the total time taken is approximately 6.39 seconds, we can divide this time into 3 intervals of 2 seconds each.
Distance traveled in the first 2 seconds: h1 = (1/2)gt^2 h1 = (1/2)(9.8)(2)^2 h1 = 19.6m
Distance traveled in the next 2 seconds: h2 = (1/2)g(t+2)^2 - (1/2)gt^2 h2 = (1/2)(9.8)(4)^2 - (1/2)(9.8)(2)^2 h2 = 78.4m - 19.6m h2 = 58.8m
Distance traveled in the last 2 seconds: h3 = h - h1 - h2 h3 = 200m - 19.6m - 58.8m h3 = 121.6m
Therefore, the ratio of distance traveled in each 2-second interval is: h1 : h2 : h3 = 19.6m : 58.8m : 121.6m h1 : h2 : h3 = 1 : 3 : 6.2

The distance travelled by the body in the first 2 seconds is given by:
$$s_1 = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$$
$$s_1 = 200 - \frac{1}{2}\times 9.81 \times 2^2$$
$$s_1 = 200 - 19.62$$
$$s_1 = 180.38\ m$$
The distance travelled by the body in the next 2 seconds is given by:
