A particle is released from height `H`. At cartain height from the ground its kinetic energy is twice its gravitational potential energy. Find the height and speed of particle at that height.

A

`(H)/(3),sqrt((2gH)/(3)`

B

`(H)/(3),2sqrt((gH)/(3)`

C

`(2H)/(3),sqrt((2gH)/(3)`

D

`(2H)/(3),sqrt(2gH)`
