  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{8}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{4}$

$A$ small solid ball is dropped from a height above the free surface of a liquid. It strikes the surface of the liquid at $t = 0$. The density of the material of the ball is $500 \ kg/m^3$ and that of the liquid is $1000 \ kg/m^3$. If the ball comes momentarily to rest at $t = 2 \ s$,then the initial height of the ball from the surface of the liquid was ..... $m$ (neglect viscosity).
