When a ball is thrown up vertically with velocity
, it reaches a maximum height of ' h '. If one wishes to triple the maximum height then the ball should be thrown with velocity
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
At maximum height velocity is zero.
From equation of motion we have

where
is final velocity,
is initial velocity. Since ball reaches maximum height, velocity at the highest point is zero. Therefore, we have

when
then
