Two balls of different masses are thrown...

Two balls of different masses are thrown vertically upwards with the same speed . They pass through the point of projection in their downward motion with the same speed ( Neglect air resistance ).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The statement is true as motion under gravity is independent of mass of the body and as body comes back to the point of projection with same speed
i.e, `v_(1) = u_(1)` and `v_(2) = u_(2)`
Here `u_(1) = u_(2) = u` (given) so `v_(1) = v_(2) = u`

Assertion : Two balls of different masses are thrown vertically upward with same speed. They will pass through their point of projection in the downward direction with the same speed. Reason: The maximum height and downward velocity attained at the point of projection are independent of the mass,of the ball.
