    A stone thrown at an angle \[\theta \] to the horizontal reaches a maximum height H. Then the time of flight of stone will be :

    A)  \[\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}\]

    B)  \[2\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}\]

    C)  \[2\sqrt{\frac{2H\sin \theta }{g}}\]

    D)  \[\sqrt{\frac{2H\sin \theta }{g}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Maximum height reached by the stone.                 \[H=\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }{2\,g}\] ?.. (i) where u is the velocity with which stone is thrown at angle 6. Time of flight, \[T=\frac{2u\,\sin \theta }{g}\] ... (ii) Using Eq. (i)                 \[{{u}^{2}}=\frac{2\,gH}{{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[u=\frac{\sqrt{2\,gH}}{\sin \theta }\] Substituting the value of u in Eq. (ii), we obtain                 \[T=\frac{2}{8}\frac{\sqrt{2g\,H}}{\sin \theta }\times \sin \theta \]                 \[=\frac{8}{2}\times \sqrt{2\,g\,H}\] \[=2\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}\]
