  1. A 24500
  2. B 12500
  3. C 12250
  4. D 25400
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 12250

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that \(s=490 t-4.9 t^2\) On differentiating w.r.t. \(t\), we get \(\frac{d s}{d t}=490-9.8 t\) A stone is reached the maximum height, when \(\frac{d s}{d t}=0\) \(\begin{array}{cc} \Rightarrow & 490-9.8 t=0 \\ \Rightarrow & t=\frac{490}{9.8}=\frac{100}{2}=50 \end{array}\)…
