Solution

The correct option is B $6 s$
Let initial speed be $V_{0}$
After $4 seconds$ , speed must be $\frac{V_{0}}{3}$

Using, $v = u + a t$
$\frac{V_{0}}{3} = V_{0} - 10 (4)$
$40 = \frac{2 V_{0}}{3}$
$V_{0} = \frac{40 \times 3}{2} = 60 m/s$

Again using, $v = u - g t$ , but now $v = 0, u = V_{0}$
$t = \frac{V_{0}}{g} = \frac{60}{10} = 6 s$
Hence total time for upward journey is $6 s$ .
