    Two balls are dropped to the ground from different heights. One ball is dropped 2 s after the other but they both strike the ground at the same time. If the first ball takes 5 s to reach the ground, then the difference in initial heights is\[(g=10m{{s}^{-2}})\]

    A)  20m                     

    B)         80m                     

    C)  170m                   

    D)         40m

    E)  160m

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{s}_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}gt_{1}^{2}=\frac{10}{2}\times {{(5)}^{2}}=125\,m\] \[{{s}_{2}}=\frac{1}{2}gt_{2}^{2}=\frac{10}{2}\times {{(3)}^{2}}=45\,m\] \[\therefore \] \[{{s}_{1}}-{{s}_{2}}=125-45=80\,m\]
