A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. It crosses a point at the height of 25 m twice at an interval of 4 seconds. The ball was thrown with the velocity of

Correct Answer: 30 m/s

Explanation:

The interval between object pass the same point is 4 sec.


That means in 2 sec, object reaches the top and in next 2 sec, it again reaches the same point.


By the info given, we can find the velocity of that point by using : v=u+(-gt)


0= u - 10×2


u = 20


Then the velocity at 25m is 20m/sec.


so the initial velocity is



- v 2   =   u 2   +   ( - 2 gh ) 400   =   u 2   -   2 x   10   x   25 u 2   =   900   = >   u   =   30   m / s
