Two particles A and B having different masses arc projected from a tower with same speed. A is projected vertically upward and B vertically downward. On reaching the ground

A

velocity of A is greater than that of B.

B

velocity of A is greater than that of B.

C

both A and B attain the same velocity.

D

the particle with the larger mass attains higher velocity.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
If A is projected verticaly upward then after some time it will reach at the same level with same speed as it is projected. Therefore both particles will reach the ground with same speed.
