Drops of water trickles down from the ceiling at regular intervals of time such that the fourth drop will just drop freely after the first drop reaches the floor. Find the position of 2nd and 3rd drop from the floor. Assume that the ceiling is 8 m from the floor.

A particle is thrown vertically upwards from the top of a tower with a certain velocity and takes 8s to reach the foot of the tower. The same when thrown with the same speed downwards, it reaches the foot of the tower in 2s. Calculate what time the particle would take to reach the foot of the tower when dropped freely. Taking g=9.8ms^(-2) calculate the height of the tower and the initial speed of the projectile.

A stone is thrown upwards from the top of a tower with some initial speed and it reaches the ground in second. Now it is allowed to fall with the same initial speed downward and it reaches the ground in 1 second In how much time will it reach the ground if the stone is allowed to fall freely under gravity from the same place:

A body is thrown up from the top of a tower with some velocity reaches the ground in 16 second. The same body if thrown with same velocity in downward direction reaches the ground in 4 second. If the body is just dropped from the tower, then it will reach the ground in time:

From the top of a tower a stone is thrown up which reaches the ground in a time t_(1) . A second stone thrown down with same speed reaches the ground in a time t_(2) . A third stone released from rest from the same location reaches the gound in a time t_(3) . then

Two bodies begin a free fall from the same height at a time interval of Ns. If vertical separation between the two bodies is 1 after second from the start of the first body, then is equal to :
