Detailed Solution

a) Average velocity is given by V_avg = H/t = $\frac{H}{\sqrt{2 H / g}}$ = $\sqrt{g H / 2}$

b)S_n= g(n-1/2). Thus, ratio of successive intervals will be 1:3:5...

c)Displacement for last second of time of flight for a vertically projected body is given by

S = ut+1/2gt²

S_{last second} = v_lastsecond.(2u/g-1) + 1/2g(2u/g - 1)²

Thus, displacement varies with the velocity of projection.

d) For a body projected from the top of the tower will be moving downwards when it crosses the point again. Therefore displacement is negative.
