A person in a lift is holding a water jar, which has a small hole at the lower end of its side. When the lift is at rest, the water jet coming out of the hole hits the floor of the lift at a distance d=1.2 m from the person. In the following, the state of the lift's motion is given in List-I and the distance where the water jet hits the floor of the lift is given in List-II. Match the statements from List-I with those in List-II and select the correct answer using the code given below lists.

Column-I Column-II
P. Lift is accelerating vertically up. 1. d=1.2 m
Q. Lift is accelerating vertically down with an acceleration less than the gravitational acceleration. 2. d>1.2 m
R. Llift is moving vertically up with constant Speed  3. d<1.2 m
S. Lift is falling freely.  4. No water leaks out of the jar
