Two stones are thrown from top of tower,...

Two stones are thrown from top of tower, one vertically upward and other downward with same speed. Ratio of velocity when they hit the ground is:

A

`1 : 2`

B

`1 : 1`

C

`2 : 1`

D

`1 : 9`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`v^(2) = u^(2) + 2gH`
`u` and H are same hence ratio is same

Two balls X and Y are thrown from top of tower one vertically upward and other vertically downward with same speed. If times taken by them to reach the ground are 6 s and 2 s respectively, then the height of the tower and initial speed of each ball are (g=10m//s^(2))

Two balls are projected simultaneously with the same speed from the top of a tower, one vertically up wards and the other vertically downwards. If the first bll strikes the ground with speed 20 m//s then speed of second ball when it strikes the ground is.

Two balls are projected simultaneously with the same velocity u from the top of a tower, one vertically upwards and the other vertically downwards. Their respective times of the journeys are t_(1) and t_(2) At the time of reaching the ground, the ratio of their final velocities is

Two balls are projected simultaneously with the same speed from the top of a tower, one vertically upwards and the other vertically downwards. They reach the ground in 9 s and 4 s, respectively. The height of the tower is (g=10 m//s^(2))

A person standing near the edge of the top of a building throws two balls A and B. The ball A is thrown vertically upward and B is thrown vertically downward with the same speed. The ball A hits the ground with speed v_A and the ball B hits the ground wiht a speed v_B . We have

From the top of a tower, a stone A is thrown upwards and a stone B is thrown downwards with the same speed. The velocity of stone A, on colliding with the ground is :

Two stones are thrown from the top of a tower, one straight down with an initial speed u and the second straight up with the same speed u. When the two stones hit the ground they will have speeds in the ratio.

A stone dropped from a building of height h and it reaches after t second on the earth. From the same building if two stones are thrown (one upwards and other downwards) with the same speed and they reach the earth surface after t_(1) and t_(2) seconds, respectively, then
