A particle thrown up vertically reaches its highest point in time t1 and returns to the ground in a further time t2. The air resistance exerts a constant force on the particle opposite to its direction of motion.
- A.t1 > t2
- B.t1 = t2
- C.t1 < t2
- D.May be (a) or (c) depending on the ratio of the force of air resistance to the weight of the particle.
