Solution

Dear Student
Given height=H,ball is thrown upwards with speed u and time taken to reach the lground is n times the time taken to reach highest point t'=nt1Let the height gained when ball is thrown vertically=Sv=u+gt1u=gt1(v=0 at highest point)v2-u2=2gSS=u22gwhen the velocity of ball is zero at highest point than total distance covere d say S'S'=Height of tower+height gained by ballS'=H+u22gwhen the ball is thrown than from highest point to groundS'=ut+12gt22H+u22g=12gt22(u=0ms-1)total time=n×t1,t'=n×t1H+u22g=12g(t'-t1)2H+u22g=12g(nt1-t1) on solvingu2n(n-2)=2gHRegards
