From a tower of height H, a particle is thrown vertically upwards with a speed u. The time taken by the particle, to hit the ground, is n times that taken by it to reach the highest point of its path. The relation between H, u and n is:

A

`2gH=n^2u^2`

B

`gH=(n-2)^2u^2`

C

`2gH=n(u^2)(n-2)`

D

`gH=(n-2)u^2`

A particle of mass m is projected from the ground with an initial speed u_0 at an angle alpha with the horizontal. At the highest point of its trajectory, it makes a completely inelastic collision with another identical particle, which was thrown vertically upward from the ground with the same initial speed u_0. The angle that the composite system makes with the horizontal immediately after the collision is
