Comprehension 2
A person standing on the roof of a building throws a ball vertically upward at an instant t = 0 . The ball
leaves his hand with an upward speed 20 m/s and it is then in free fall. The ball rises to a certain height
and then moves down. On its way down, the ball just misses to hit the roof of the building and keeps falling
towards the earth. The ball hits earth at t = 5 sec. Considering that (i) the vertically upward direction is the
positive Y - direction (ii) the position of ball at t = 0 is the origin (iii) the ball does not rebound and comes to
rest at the same place where it hits earth and (iv) air resistance is negligible. ( Take g = 10 m / s 2 )
Answer the following questions.
11. Maximum displacement of the ball from the initial position is
(A) 45 jm
(B) -45 jm
(C) 25jm

(D) 25jm

12. Average velocity of the ball from t = 0 to t = 5 sec is

(A) 10jm / s
(B) 5jm / s

(D) 9jm / s

(C) 8jm / s
