1.

a stone thrown vertically upwards with initial velocity u reaches a height 'h' before coming down. show that the Time taken to go up is same as the time taken to come down.​

Answer»

Answer:

Explanation:

When STONE throw upward with initial velocity, u

Final velocity at maximum height, v=0

Apply kinematic EQUATION of motion.

v=u+at

t=  

a

v−u

=  

−g

0−u

 

Apply kinematic equation of motion.

s=ut+

h=u(

u=

Time,

t=

t=

.(1)

(ii) When stone DROP from height h

Apply kinematic equation of motion.

v

−u

=2gh

v=  u +at

2gh

 

Apply kinematic equation of motion.

v= t

t=

v−u

=  

g

2gh

−0

=  

g

2h

 

(2)

From (1 ) and (2) it is proved that the time taken to GO up is same as the time taken to come down.
