Two bodies are thrown simultaneously fro...

Two bodies are thrown simultaneously from a tower with same initial velocity `v_0`: one vertically upwards, the other vertically downwards. The distance between the two bodies after time t is

A

`2v_0 t + 1/2 "gt"^2`

B

`2v_0 t`

C

`v_0 t + 1/2 "gt"^2`

D

`v_0 t`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

For vertically upward motion, `h_1 = v_0 t -1/2 g t^2 `
vertically downward motion `h_2 = v_0 t + 1/2 g t^2`
` therefore ` Total distance covered in t sec ` h = h_1 + h_2 = 2v_0 t`
