Solution
The correct option is A2ug When a body is projected up, suppose it crosses a point P at time t1 in its upward journey. The body will cross the same point P at time t2 in its downward journey. Now the equation of trajectory is, h=ut−12gt2 Rearranging we get, 12gt2−ut+h=0
These two values of 't' give the value of t1 and t2
