You drop a ball from a window located on an upper floor of a building. It strikes the ground with speed v . You now repeat the drop, but your friend down on the ground throws another ball upward at the same speed v , releasing her ball at the same moment that you drop yours from the window. At some location, the balls pass each other. This location is.
