If a person can throw a stone to maximum height of \(\mathrm{h}\) metre vertically, then the maximum distance through which it can be thrown horizontally by the same person is
- A \(\frac{\mathrm{h}}{2}\)
- B \(\mathrm{h}\)
- C \(2 \mathrm{~h}\)
- D \(3 \mathrm{~h}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(2 \mathrm{~h}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Hints: \(\mathrm{h}=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2}{2 \mathrm{~g}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{u}^2=2 \mathrm{gh}\) Maximum horizontal distance…
