A ball is dropped from a height H from rest. The ball travels H2 in last 1.0 s. The total time taken by the ball to hit the ground is

  1. A 3.85 s
  2. B 3.41 s
  3. C 2.55 s
  4. D 4.65 s
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3.41 s

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: Height of free fall of ball is H Distance covered by the ball is H2 in last 1.0 s. Now, displacement in the nth second sn=u+an-12 Here sn=H2, u=0 (since the ball is at rest initially) Thus, H2=gn-12      ...1 where n is the time taken to…
