$A$ balloon rises from rest with a constant acceleration $g/8$. $A$ stone is released from it when it has risen to height $h$. The time taken by the stone to reach the ground is

$A$ body is thrown vertically up from the ground. It reaches a maximum height of $100\,m$ in $5\,sec$. After what time will it reach the ground from the maximum height position?

Assertion $(A)$: The displacement of a vertically projected body during the last second of its upward motion is $\frac{g}{2}$.
Reason $(R)$: For a vertically projected body,the acceleration decreases gradually and becomes $\frac{g}{2}$ during the last second of upward motion.

If a stone thrown vertically upwards from a bridge with an initial velocity of $5 \,m \,s^{-1}$ strikes the water below the bridge in a time of $3 \,s$, then the height of the bridge above the water surface is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$) (in $\,m$)
