    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) \[\sqrt{\frac{2\,\,H}{g}}\]                            

    B) \[2\sqrt{\frac{2\,\,H}{g}}\]

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

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

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Maximum height                 \[H=\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }{2g}\]                                       ... (1) Time of flight                 \[T=\frac{2u\sin \theta }{g}\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[u\sin \theta =\frac{Tg}{2}\]                     ... (2) From equations (1) and (2), we get                 \[H=\frac{1}{2g}{{\left( \frac{Tg}{2} \right)}^{2}}\]                 \[H=\frac{{{T}^{2}}{{g}^{2}}}{8g}\]                 \[{{T}^{2}}=\frac{8H}{g}\]                 \[T=2\sqrt{\left( \frac{2H}{g} \right)}\]
