A ball is projected horizontally with a velocity of \(5 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\) from the top of a building \(19.6 \mathrm{~m}\) high. How long will the ball take to hit the ground?
- A \(\sqrt{2} \mathrm{~s}\)
- B \(2 \mathrm{~s}\)
- C \(\sqrt{3} \mathrm{~s}\)
- D \(3 s\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2 \mathrm{~s}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The time taken to hit the ground is given by \(T=\sqrt{\frac{2 H}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 19.6}{9.8}}=2 \mathrm{~s}\)
