उत्तर
Given:
Total time of journey = 6 s
g = 10 m/s2
Let h be the greatest height.
From the equation of motion,
`h = ut + 1/2 g t^2`
(we consider motion of ball from highest point to the ground.)
Since the total time for journey of the ball in air = 6 s.
Therefore, time for reaching maximum height = `6/2` = 3 s
For ascent, initial velocity, u = 0
Substituting the values in the formula, we get,
`h = (0 xx 3) + (1/2 xx 10 xx 3^2)`
h = 0 + (5 × 9)
h = 45 m
Hence, greatest height reached by the ball = 45 m

A person is standing on a weighing machine placed on the floor of an elevator. The elevator starts going up with some acceleration, moves with uniform velocity for a while and finally decelerates to stop.
