A particle projected vertically under gravity passes a certain level on the way up at a time \(T_1\) and on the way down at a time \(T_2\) – after it was projected. The speed of projection is:

1. \(\dfrac{1}{2} g\left(T_{1}+T_{2}\right)\)

2. \(\dfrac{1}{2} g\left(T_{1}-T_{2}\right)\)

3. \(g \sqrt{T_{1} T_{2}}\)

4. \(\dfrac{1}{2} g \dfrac{T_{1} T_{2}}{T_{1}+T_{2}}\)

A boy throws a ball straight up the side of a building and receives it after \(4~\text s.\) On the other hand, if he throws it so that it strikes a ledge on its way up, it returns to him after \(3~\text s.\) The ledge is at a distance \(d\) below the highest point, where \(d=? \) (take acceleration due to gravity, \(g=10~\text{ms}^{-2})\)

A particle is projected vertically upwards with a speed \(u\) and moves under the force of gravity. The distance travelled by the particle during its entire motion (until it returns) is \(d_1.\) If the force of gravity were to be switched off, and the particle travelled for the same length of time, then the distance travelled is \(d_2.\) Then, 
1. \(d_2 = d_1\)
2. \(d_2 = 2d_1\)
3. \(d_2 = 3d_1\) 
4. \(d_2 = 4 d_1\)

A man \((A)\) has to throw a ball vertically up to a partner \((B)\) who is standing up, above his level by \(15~\text{m}.\) The \((B)\) partner can catch the ball only when it comes downwards with a maximum speed of \(10~\text{m/s}\)
(take acceleration due to gravity as \(10~\text{m/s}^{2}\))
The minimum and maximum speeds of the throw are: (nearly)
1. \(10~\text{m/s}~\text{and}~20~\text{m/s}\)
2. \(10~\text{m/s}~\text{and}~30~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(20~\text{m/s}~\text{and}~20\sqrt{3}~\text{m/s}\)
4. \(10\sqrt{3}~\text{m/s}~\text{and}~20~\text{m/s}\)
