Motion Under Gravity

A juggler throws balls vertically upwards with same initial velocity in air. When the first ball reaches its highest position, he throws the next ball. Assuming the juggler throws n balls per second, the maximum height the balls can reach is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. nn balls per second: interval =1n= \frac{1}{n} s, which equals the time to reach the top.
  2. H=12gt2=12g(1n)2H = \frac{1}{2}gt^2 = \frac{1}{2}g\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)^2
  3. So the answer is (d) g2n2\frac{g}{2n^2}.
