In presence of quanta H =1.85m and v=6.34m/s. Therefore, the correct answer is H =1.85m and v=6.34m/s is correct .

we can use the following steps:

Calculate the initial velocity of the bottle. We know that the bottle is thrown at a speed of 15 m/s and at an angle of 25 degrees. We can use the following equation to calculate the initial velocity in the vertical direction:

v_y = v_i * sin(theta)

where:

v_i is the initial velocity

theta is the angle of projection

v_y = 15 m/s * sin(25 degrees)

v_y = 6.34 m/s

Calculate the time it takes for the bottle to reach the pillar. We can use the following equation to calculate the time of flight:

t = 2 * v_y / g

where:

g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2)

t = 2 * 6.34 m/s / 9.81 m/s^2

t = 1.27 s

Calculate the height at which the bottle makes contact with the pillar. We can use the following equation to calculate the vertical displacement:

h = v_y * t - 1/2 * g * t^2

h = 6.34 m/s * 1.27 s - 1/2 * 9.81 m/s^2 * (1.27 s)^2

h = 1.85 m .
