Solution

The correct option is B 11:1
height in the first second,
h1=u−g2
hight covered in the first second of downward journey
h2=g2
given ta=ug=6;u=6g

v=0 at max height
v2=u2−2gs|t=ug
⇒u2=2gHmax|u=gt
u=√2gHmax|u=6g−(0)
s1=u(1)−12g(1)2=u−g2 .....(1)
s7=[u(7)−12g(7)2]−[u(6)−12g(6)2]
=u−12g(13) .....(2)
s1s7=u−g2u−g2(13)=6g−g26g−13g2=11−1 .....(3)
So, s1s7=111
