Detailed Solution
When a particle is thrown vertically upwards with a speed u , at height point the velocity of the particle will be zero.Using v = u + at0 = u−gt ⇒ t = ug−−−(i)The time taken by the particle, to hit the ground, is n times that taken by it to reach the highest point of its path Let t1 = ntUsing, s = ut1+12at12⇒ −H = u(nt)−12g(nt)2⇒ −H = u×n(ug)−12gn2(ug)2 [using(i)]⇒ 2gH = 2nu2−n2u2 ⇒2gH = nu2(n−2)
