An object is thrown vertically upward with a speed `u_(1)` and it travels 8 m in the last secon of its upward motion. If the object is thrown upward with a speed `u_(2)` which is twice of `u_(1)`, the distance now travelled by the object during the last second of its upward journey will be:

A

32 m

B

16 m

C

12 m

D

8 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The distance travelled in last second is always equal because it is equal to
`s = (1)/(2) xx g (t)^(2)`
