Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
For a projectile motion, when a body is thrown in a angle θ with the horizontal with velocity u, the body attains maximum height H=u2sin2θ2g
When the body is thrown vertically, θ=90o
So, maximum height H=u2sin90o2g=u22g
