A uniform solid spherical ball is rolling down a smooth inclined plane from a height 
. The velocity attained by the ball when it reaches the bottom of the inclined plane is 
. If the ball is now thrown vertically upwards with the same velocity 
, the maximum height to which the ball will rise is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Total kinetic energy of a body which is rolling without slipping is given by
+ 
For solid spherical ball, 
and 
(Along the diameter)
