and
is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
Given that the maximum height reached by the first ball is 8 times that of the second ball:

We can relate this to the initial velocities and angles using the formula for maximum height:

Simplifying, we find:

Now, the ratio of the total flying times
and
is given by:

Thus, the ratio of
to
is
.
