The correct Answer is:
To find the time of flight of a stone thrown at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem The stone is thrown at an angle \(\theta\) and reaches a maximum height \(H\). We need to determine the total time of flight for the stone. ### Step 2: Use the formula for maximum height The maximum height \(H\) reached by a projectile is given by the formula: \[ H = \frac{u^2 \sin^2 \theta}{2g} \] where \(u\) is the initial velocity and \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity. ### Step 3: Rearranging the formula for initial velocity component From the maximum height formula, we can express \(u \sin \theta\): \[ u \sin \theta = \sqrt{2gH} \] ### Step 4: Use the formula for time of flight The total time of flight \(T\) for a projectile is given by: \[ T = \frac{2u \sin \theta}{g} \] ### Step 5: Substitute the expression for \(u \sin \theta\) Now, substitute \(u \sin \theta\) from Step 3 into the time of flight formula: \[ T = \frac{2 \sqrt{2gH}}{g} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the expression Now simplify the expression: \[ T = \frac{2\sqrt{2H}}{\sqrt{g}} \] ### Final Result Thus, the time of flight \(T\) of the stone is: \[ T = 2\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}} \]
