Three identical balls are thrown from top of a cliff and some time later land at the base of the cliff. Ball A is thrown upwards with speed `V_(A)`, ball B is thrown downwards with speed `V_(B)`, and ball C is thrown at speed `V_(C )` and at an angle of `45^(@)` above horizontal. Comparing the speeds `V_(A),V_(B) and V_(C )` with which balls hit the ground at the base of the cliff (and ignoring air resistance), you find,

A

`V_(A)=V_(B) gt V_(C )`

B

`V_(A) gt V_(C ) gt V_(B)`

C

`V_(A)=V_(B)=V_(C )`

D

`V_(B) gt V_(C ) gt V_(A)`.
