$A$ stone with weight $w$ is thrown vertically upward into the air from ground level with initial speed $v_0$. If a constant force $f$ due to air drag acts on the stone throughout its flight,the maximum height attained by the stone is

  • A
    $h=\frac{v_0^2}{2 g\left(1-\frac{f}{w}\right)}$
  • B
    $h=\frac{v_0^2}{2 g\left(1+\frac{f}{w}\right)}$
  • C
    $h=\frac{v_0^2}{2 g\left(1+\frac{w}{f}\right)}$
  • D
    $h=\frac{v_0^2}{2 g\left(1-\frac{w}{f}\right)}$
