A stone is thrown upwards from the surface of the earth with an initial speed of 5 m/s. The stone comes to rest at a height of : `(g = 1000 "dyne"//g)`

A

1.25 m

B

12.5 m

C

125 m

D

2.45 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`h = (u^(2))/(2g) = (5 xx 5)/(2 xx 10) = 1.25 m`
