A particle is thrown vertically upwards....

A particle is thrown vertically upwards. The correct graph between its speed (v) and time (t) is given by (neglecting air resistance)

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

During upward motion, velocity of particle at time t is given by, v=u-gti.e., velocity decreases linearly with time and finally becomes zero. During downward motion, v = u + gt = gt In this case, the velocity increases with time linearly.

    A particle is unchanged and is thrown vertically upward from ground level with a speed of 5sqrt(5) m//s in a region of space having uniform electric field As a result, it attains a maximum height h. The particle is then given a positive charge +q and reaches the same maximum height h when thrown vertically upward with a speed of 13 m//s Finally the particle is given a negative charge -q Ignoring air resistance determine the speed (in m//s) with which the negatively charged particle must be thrown vertically upward, so that it attains exactly the same maximum height h.
