Ball `A` is dropped from the top of a building. At the same instant ball `B` is thrown vertically upwards from the ground. When the balls collide, they are moving in opposite direction and the speed of `A` is twice the speed of `B`. At what fraction of the height of the building did the collision occurs ?

A

`(1)/(3)`

B

`(2)/(3)`

C

`(5)/(3)`

D

`(7)/(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(h_(B))/(h_(A)+h_(B))=(ut-(1)/(2)g t^(2))/((1)/(2)g t^(2)+(ut-(1)/(2)g t^(2)))`
