The object reaches at maximum height of 20 m in 5 s when thrown upwards. Then what time will be taken by it to come to ground?

A

`2.5s`

B

`5s`

C

`10s`

D

`25s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The time taken to reach at maximum height = The time taken to reach at ground from maximum height.
`therefore` Time taken to come to ground is 5 s.
