P (momentum) is same, so
This means the lighter the object the higher its kinetic energy.

Explain Question:
The question asks for the 5th term in a geometric progression (GP) where the first three terms
are 3, 6, and 12. We need to find the value of the 5th term using the properties of a GP.
Concept :
Geometric Progression (GP) : A sequence where each term after the first is found by
multiplying the previous term by a constant called the common ratio.
Solution :
Let the first term be a and the common ratio be r.
From the sequence 3, 6, 12, ……
we have, a = 3, r = 6/3 = 2
The nth term of a G.P. is given by Tn = arn–1
Thus the 5th term is T5 = 3 × 25–1 = 3 × 24 = 3 × 16 = 48.

Explain Question:
The question asks for the sum of the first 7 terms of a geometric series: –2, 4, –8, 16, ...
You are given the first term, the common ratio, and the number of terms. You need to use
the geometric series sum formula to find the total.
Concept :
• Geometric Series : A sequence where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by
a constant ratio.
• Sum of Geometric Series : The sum of the first n terms can be calculated using a specific
formula involving the first term, common ratio, and number of terms.
Solution :
Here is a direct application of the sum-of-a-geometric-series formula.
We have first term a = –2, common ratio r = –2, and number of terms n = 7.
⇒
Therefore, the sum of the first 7 terms is –86.

Explain Question:
The question asks for the first term of a geometric progression (G.P.) where the nth term is
128, the sum of the first n terms is 255, and the common ratio is 2. We are to find the value of
the first term.
Concept :
• Geometric Progression : A sequence where each term is found by multiplying the previous
term by a constant ratio.
• Sum of n Terms of G.P. : The sum of the first n terms is a × (rn – 1) / (r – 1) for r ≠ 1.
• nth Term of G.P.: The nth term is given by a × rn–1, where a is the first term and r is the
common ratio.
Solution :
Let the first term be a, the common ratio be r = 2, and the number of terms be .
1. The nth term of the G.P. is given by Tn = a rn–1
Since Tn = 128 and r = 2, a . 2n–1 = 128.
Thus .

Concept:
• Geometric Series: A sequence where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by

• Sum of Geometric Series: The sum of the first n terms can be calculated using a specific
formula involving the first term and the common ratio.
Solution:
Using the sum-of-a-geometric-series formula and exact fraction arithmetic:
For n = 7,
Therefore, the sum of the first seven terms is 273.25.
Explain Question:
The question gives the 3rd and 8th terms of a geometric progression (GP) and asks you to find
the 12th term. You need to use the properties of GPs to find the common ratio and first term,
then use these to calculate the required term.
Concept:
