                    A particle (A) is dropped from a height and another particle (B) is projected in horizontal direction with a speed of 5 m/s from the same height. Then the correct statement is:                                  

    A)                 particle (A) will reach the ground earlier than particle (B)

    B)                 particle (B) will reach the ground earlier than particle (A)

    C)                 both the particles will reach the ground simultaneously

    D)                 both the particles will reach the ground with the same speed

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    In both cases vertical component of velocity of particles is zero, therefore for both particles                 \[h=\frac{1}{2}\,g{{t}^{2}}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\,\,is\,same\]                 Hence, both the particles reach the ground simultaneously.
