Kinematics Question 227

Question: A man throws a ball vertically upward and it rises through 20 m and returns to his hands. What was the initial velocity (u) of the ball and for how much time (T) it remained in the air [g=10m/s2] [MP PET 2001]

Options:

A) u = 10 m/s, T = 2s

B) u = 10 m/s, T = 4s

C) u = 20 m/s, T = 2s

D) u = 20 m/s, T = 4s

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

u=2gh=2×10×20=20 m/s

and T=2ug=2×2010=4 sec
