Current Question (ID: 8893)

Question:
$\text{A body is thrown vertically upwards. If the air resistance is to be taken into account, then the time during which the body rises is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{Equal to the time of fall.}$
  • 2. $\text{Less than the time of fall.}$
  • 3. $\text{Greater than the time of fall.}$
  • 4. $\text{Twice the time of fall.}$
Solution:
\text{Let the initial velocity of the ball be } u. \text{Time of rise: } t_1 = \frac{u}{g+a} \text{ and height reached: } h = \frac{u^2}{2(g+a)} \text{where } a \text{ represents the deceleration due to air resistance.} \text{The time of fall } t_2 \text{ is given by:} \frac{1}{2}(g-a)t_2^2 = \frac{u^2}{2(g+a)} \Rightarrow t_2 = \frac{u}{\sqrt{(g+a)(g-a)}} = \frac{u}{g+a} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{g+a}{g-a}} \therefore t_2 > t_1 \text{ because } \sqrt{\frac{g+a}{g-a}} > 1 \text{Since } \sqrt{\frac{g+a}{g-a}} > 1 \text{ when air resistance is present.} \text{Therefore, the time during which the body rises is less than the time of fall.} \text{This occurs because during upward motion, both gravity and air resistance} \text{act downward, while during downward motion, gravity acts downward} \text{but air resistance acts upward.} \text{Hence, option (2) is the correct answer.}
