Mark the following statement is true or false.
A ball thrown vertically up takes more time to go up than to come down.

Open in App

Solution

Projectile takes equal time to go up and down.
If down time $= T \Rightarrow 0 = - μ t + \frac{1}{2} {g t}^{2}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{2 μ}{g} = T$
Time taken to go up $=$ Time to come down $= \frac{μ}{g}$ .
