A stone projected at an angle of `60^@` from the ground level strikes at an angle of `30^@` on the roof of a building of height `h`. Then the speed of projection of the stone is:

A

`sqrt(2gh)`

B

`sqrt(6gh)`

C

`sqrt(3gh)`

D

`sqrt(gh)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Let intial and final speedds of stone be u and v.
`v^2=u^2-2gh`
and `vcos30^@=ucos60^@`
solving 1 and 2 we get
`u=sqrt(3gh)`
