Find in terms of ##h## when ##P## comes instantaneously to rest

In summary, to determine the height \( h \) at which the object \( P \) comes instantaneously to rest, one must analyze the conditions of motion and apply principles of physics, such as potential and kinetic energy, or the equations of motion under gravity. By setting the final velocity to zero and solving for \( h \), one can find the specific height where the object ceases to move.

This looks nice! interestingly, the MS did not envisage this approach. Does a student get full marks by using this approach? This question is from As level Mechanics Paper.
You get full marks in A-level (and no doubt other) examinations for a correct alternative approach. (I write as someone who has worked for examination boards, marking A-level papers, in the past.)
