$A$ man throws a ball vertically upward and it rises through $20 \; m$ and returns to his hands. What was the initial velocity $(u)$ of the ball and for how much time $(T)$ it remained in the air? $[g = 10 \; m/s^2]$

  • A
    $u = 10 \; m/s, T = 2 \; s$
  • B
    $u = 10 \; m/s, T = 4 \; s$
  • C
    $u = 20 \; m/s, T = 2 \; s$
  • D
    $u = 20 \; m/s, T = 4 \; s$
