2.31s2.31s

Explanation:

here,the upward movement of the projectile will be due to the upward component of its velocity i.e 32 sin (pi/4)32sin(π4)

So,we can apply, v=u-g tv=ugt to find the time taken to reach its maximum height.

At,maximum height upward component of velocity is zero,initial upward velocity is 32 sin (pi/4)32sin(π4)

So, t= (32 sin (pi/4))/g=2.31 st=32sin(π4)g=2.31s
