Two balls of different masses (one lighter and other heaver) are thrown vertically upwards with the same speed. Which one will pass through the point of projection in the downward direction with greater speed?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Both will acquire the same speed because the equation for the final speed attained is independent of mass.
