Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(g / 2 n^{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Time taken by ball to reach highest point \(=\frac{ u }{ g }\)

Frequency of throw \(=\frac{ g }{ u }= n\)

\(u =\frac{ g }{ n }\)

\(H _{\max }=\frac{ u ^{2}}{2 g }=\frac{\left(\frac{ g }{ n }\right)^{2}}{2 g }\)

\(\frac{g}{2 n^{2}}\)
