A stone drope from the window of a stationary bus takes 4 seconds to reach the ground. In what time the stone will reach the groun when the bus is moving with (a) constant velocity of 108 km h^(-1)` (b) constant acceleration of ` 2 km h&(-2)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) 4 seconds (b) 4 seconds. In bothe the cases the initail vertical downward velocity is zero and the vertical downward accleration is acceletation due to gravity g and the stone is to cover the same vertical height in each case.
