A ball rolls off top of a stair case with horizontal velocity `u (m)/(s)` if the steps are h meter high and b meter wide, the ball will just hit the edge of `n^(th)` step. Then value of n is:

A

`(hu^(2))/(gb^(2))`

B

`(hu^(2))/(2gb^(2))`

C

`(2hu^(2))/(gb^(2))`

D

`(hu^(2))/(3gb^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C


By using equation of trajector
`(nh)=(g(nb)^(2))/(2u^(2))=n=(2hu^(2))/(gb^(2))`
