A stone is thrown upwards with a speed u from the top of a tower reaches the ground with a velocity 3 u . The height of the tower is

A

`3u^2//g`

B

`4u^2 //g`

C

`6u^2 //g `

D

`9u^2//g`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`v^2 = u^2 + 2gh`
`rArr (3u)^2 = (-u)^2 + 2gh rArr h = (4u^2)/(g)`
