The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the velocity of projection \( U \) of a body that is projected vertically upwards, given the times \( t_1 \) and \( t_2 \) for ascending and descending to a height \( H \) respectively. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion**: - When the body is projected upwards, it takes time \( t_1 \) to reach height \( H \). - After reaching the maximum height, it takes time \( t_2 \) to descend back to the ground from height \( H \). 2. **Using the Equations of Motion**: - For the upward motion (ascending to height \( H \)): \[ H = Ut_1 - \frac{1}{2} g t_1^2 \quad \text{(1)} \] - For the downward motion (descending from height \( H \)): \[ H = Ut_2 - \frac{1}{2} g t_2^2 \quad \text{(2)} \] 3. **Setting the Two Equations Equal**: - Since both equations equal \( H \), we can set them equal to each other: \[ Ut_1 - \frac{1}{2} g t_1^2 = Ut_2 - \frac{1}{2} g t_2^2 \] 4. **Rearranging the Equation**: - Rearranging gives: \[ Ut_1 - Ut_2 = \frac{1}{2} g t_1^2 - \frac{1}{2} g t_2^2 \] - Factoring out \( U \) and \( \frac{1}{2} g \): \[ U(t_1 - t_2) = \frac{1}{2} g (t_1^2 - t_2^2) \] 5. **Using the Difference of Squares**: - The term \( t_1^2 - t_2^2 \) can be factored using the difference of squares: \[ t_1^2 - t_2^2 = (t_1 - t_2)(t_1 + t_2) \] - Substituting this back into the equation gives: \[ U(t_1 - t_2) = \frac{1}{2} g (t_1 - t_2)(t_1 + t_2) \] 6. **Cancelling Common Terms**: - Assuming \( t_1 \neq t_2 \), we can cancel \( (t_1 - t_2) \) from both sides: \[ U = \frac{1}{2} g (t_1 + t_2) \] 7. **Final Result**: - Thus, the velocity of projection \( U \) is: \[ U = \frac{g}{2} (t_1 + t_2) \]
