Detailed Solution

It takes 4 s to return to its original position.
The object will return back to the same point with 19.6 m/but downward, therefore its displacement will be zero. The following equation can be used to calculate the amount of time needed to reach the highest point.
= u + gt (1)
Initial velocity u=19.6 m/s and gravitational acceleration g=9.8 m/s2
Put these values in equation (1).
 0 = 19.6 + (-9.8 t) (here negative sign indicates the direction of acceleration)
 t = 19.8 /9.8
 t =2 s
So, the object takes the same amount of time to come back to its original position.
Total time =2× 2  Total time =4 s
