The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the initial velocity of a body projected vertically upwards, given the times taken to reach a certain height \( h \) during ascent and descent, denoted as \( t_1 \) and \( t_2 \) respectively. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion**: - When a body is projected upwards, it moves against the force of gravity until it reaches its maximum height and then descends back down. - The time taken to reach a height \( h \) while ascending is \( t_1 \), and the time taken to descend back to the same height \( h \) is \( t_2 \). 2. **Using the Equation of Motion**: - We can use the second equation of motion: \[ s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^2 \] - Here, \( s \) is the displacement (height \( h \)), \( u \) is the initial velocity (which we denote as \( u_0 \)), \( a \) is the acceleration (which is \( -g \) when moving upwards), and \( t \) is the time. 3. **Applying the Equation for Ascent**: - For the ascent to height \( h \): \[ h = u_0 t_1 - \frac{1}{2} g t_1^2 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ 2h = 2u_0 t_1 - g t_1^2 \] 4. **Applying the Equation for Descent**: - For the descent from height \( h \): \[ h = u_0 t_2 - \frac{1}{2} g t_2^2 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ 2h = 2u_0 t_2 - g t_2^2 \] 5. **Setting Up the Equations**: - We now have two equations: \[ g t_1^2 - 2u_0 t_1 + 2h = 0 \quad \text{(1)} \] \[ g t_2^2 - 2u_0 t_2 + 2h = 0 \quad \text{(2)} \] 6. **Using the Properties of Quadratic Equations**: - For a quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \), the sum of the roots \( t_1 + t_2 \) is given by \( -\frac{b}{a} \). - Here, \( a = g \), \( b = -2u_0 \), and \( c = 2h \). - Thus, we can write: \[ t_1 + t_2 = \frac{2u_0}{g} \] 7. **Solving for Initial Velocity \( u_0 \)**: - Rearranging gives: \[ u_0 = \frac{g(t_1 + t_2)}{2} \] ### Final Answer: The velocity of projection \( u_0 \) is given by: \[ u_0 = \frac{g(t_1 + t_2)}{2} \]
