To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the motion of both balls and find the time and distance at which they meet. ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have two balls: - **Ball A** is dropped from the top of the tower (initial velocity \( u_A = 0 \)). - **Ball B** is thrown downward 2 seconds later with an initial velocity of \( u_B = 40 \, \text{m/s} \). ### Step 2: Define Variables ...
