  • question_answer
    A ball is thrown from height \[h\] and another from \[2h.\] The ratio of time taken by the two balls to reach ground is:

    A)  1 :\[\sqrt{2}\]

    B)         \[\sqrt{2}\]:1   

    C)         2 : 1                      

    D)         1 : 2

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    For first ball, \[h=0\times {{t}_{1}}+\frac{1}{2}gt_{1}^{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{t}_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\]                                ?(i) For second ball, \[2h=0\times {{t}_{2}}-\frac{1}{2}gt_{2}^{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{t}_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{4h}{g}}\]                                ?(ii) From equation (i) and (ii) \[{{t}_{1}}:{{t}_{2}}=1:\sqrt{2}\]
