When a player thrown a ball, it reaches the other player in \(4 \mathrm{~s}\). If the height of each player is \(1.8 \mathrm{~m}\), the maximum height attained by the ball above the ground is

  1. A \(19.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(20.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(21.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(22.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(21.4 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Time taken to reach the ball from one player to another is equal to time of flight. Hence, time of flight, \(T=4 \mathrm{~s}\) \(\frac{2 u \sin \theta}{g}=4 \Rightarrow u \sin \theta=2 g\) ...(i) Height attained by the ball above the ground \(=\) height of either player +…
