Ball-1 is dropped from the top of a building from rest. At the same moment, ball-2 is thrown upward towards ball1 with a speed
from a point
below the top of building. How far will the ball-1 have dropped when it passes ball-2. (Assume acceleration due to gravity,
.)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
For downward motion of ball-1


For upward motion of ball-2,

Given, speed of ball-2,
, acceleration due to gravity,
Substituting these values, we get

Adding Eq. (i) and (ii), we get

From Eq. (i), we get

Therefore, the ball-1 will have dropped
when it passes ball-2.
