Two guns are mounted (fixed) on two vertical cliffs that are very high from the ground as shown in figure. The muzzle velocity of the shell from `G_1` is `u_1` and that from `G_2` is`u_2`. Such that the shells collide with each other in air is (Assume that there is no resistance of air)

A

`1:2`

B

`1:4`

C

will not collide for any ratio

D

will collide for any ratio

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As the relative acceleration is zero, the particles will meet for all values of `u_1` and `u_2` (Assuming they do not collide with the ground. It is given that the cliffs are very high)
