Can equations of kinematics be applied to find the height attained by body projected upwards with any velocity ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, equations of kinematics are applicable to the motion in which acceleration is uniform. An object projected upward necessarily will not have uniform acceleration, because acceleration due to gravity is uniform at the heights nearer to earth.s surface,
