STANDARD Physics Projectile motion MCQ Question
A body is projected vertically upwards with a velocity of 10 m s⁻¹. It reaches maximum height h at time t. In time t/2, the height covered is
h/2
2/5 h
3/4 h
5/8 h
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The body reaches maximum height h at time t. At time t/2, it has covered 3/4 of the maximum height due to the symmetry of projectile motion.
