From the top of a tower of height 40m, a ball is projected upward with a speed of `20ms^(-1)` at an angle of elevation of `30^(@)`. Then the ratio of the total time taken by the ball to hit the ground to the time taken to ball come at same level as top of tower.

Options

A. `2:1`
B. `3:1`
C. `3:2`
D. `1:5`

Answer

A

Explanation

Time of flight `=(2u sin theta)/(g)=(2 xx 20 xx 1)/(2 xx 10)=2s`
Let total time `=t rArr 10t -1/2 (10)^(2)t^(2)=-40 rArr t^(2)-2t-8=0 rArr t=4s` Ratio =4:2:2:2:1.
