To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of both balls separately and then find the time and distance at which they meet. ### Step 1: Analyze the first ball's motion The first ball is dropped from the top of the tower. - Initial velocity (u1) = 0 m/s (since it is dropped) - Acceleration (a) = g = 9.8 m/s² (acceleration due to gravity) - Time (t1) = t seconds (we will find this later) ...
