Two guns situated at the top of a hill of height `10 m` fire one shot each with the same speed `5sqrt(3) m//s` at some interval of time. One gun fires horizontal and the other fores upwards at an angle of `60^(@)` with the horizontal. Two shots collide in air at a poit `P`. Find (i) time-interval between the firing and (ii) coordinates of the point `P`. Take the origin of coordinates system at the foot of the hill right below the muzzle and trajectorise in the `x-y` plane.
