Problem

32 An object of unknown mass is initially at rest and dropped from a height hh. It reaches the ground with a velocity v1\mathrm{v}_{1}. The same object is then raised again to the same height h but this time is thrown downward with velocity v1\mathrm{v}_{1} It now reaches the ground with a new velocity v2v_{2}. How is v2v_{2} related to v1v_{1} ? (A) v2=v1/2\mathrm{v}_{2}=\mathrm{v}_{1} / 2 (B) v2=v1v_{2}=v_{1} (C) v2=2v1\mathrm{v}_{2}=\sqrt{2} \mathrm{v}_{1} (D) v2=2v1v_{2}=2 v_{1} (E) v2=4v1v_{2}=4 v_{1}
