Question

Two bodies fall freely from different heights & reach the ground simultaneously.
The time of descent for the first body is t1=2sec. & for the second, t2=1sec.
At what height was the first body situated when the other began to fall?????

Answer 1

@Vaidehi09 :)

Answer 2

loL MOTION

Answer 3

loL MOTION

Answer 4

copy :D

Answer 5

lol

Answer 6

lol

Answer 7

well do u understood the question

Answer 8

ya i gt the answer too

Answer 9

then y u r asking

Answer 10

but i didn't understood that how can two bodies from different heights can reach the ground simultaneously?????????

Answer 11

The more massive objects will fall faster since they will also exert a greater gravitational attraction on the \[\huge Earth......\]

Answer 12

but which is massive not stated:(

Answer 13

no, irrespective of their masses, bodies take the same time to fall from the same ht.

Answer 14

The rate of fall is a combination of the gravitational pull of BOTH the object and the earth.

Answer 15

then they are falling from different heights
main problem is this

Answer 16

but time is also different

Answer 17

@maheshmeghwal9 yea...i know. that's fishy.

Answer 18

as its\[\Huge 9.8N \rightarrow gravitatonal \quad pull \]

Answer 19

starting from diff hts, they can reach the ground simultaneously only if one of them is given an initial velocity.

Answer 20

@Rohangrr i'm telling you, mass has nothing to do with the time taken for them to reach the ground. since in the vertical motion, the acceleration acting on them both is the same ---> g.

Answer 21

@Vaidehi09 u cannot change the \[\huge NORMS.\]

Answer 22

wait a minute u both please:)
if u have both understood the question
plz give me the solution on the basis of ur respective thinkings
becoz i didn't gt my answer logically however i gt that:/

Answer 23

@Vaidehi09

Answer 24

@Rohangrr

Answer 25

@maheshmeghwal9 many a times, problems are formulated without considering the facts. so they just want u to calculate the ht....don't go into the logic here.

Answer 26

logic but @Vaidehi09 dont calculate it on air do it on the norms and facts provided

Answer 27

@Rohangrr why don't u try asking others that question? i'm sure u'll get the same answer.

Answer 28

bodies are falling freely
important point to note
so plz give the solution

Answer 29

LOL thats called mashing up

Answer 30

just wait lol I step back vaidehi will explain @Vaidehi09 happy :)

Answer 31

@Rohangrr why are u being so rigid?
@maheshmeghwal9 u already got the answer right?

Answer 32

ya but not logically:(
so want the solution logically

Answer 33

What do u understand by RIGID @Vaidehi09

Answer 34

Answer is 14.7 meters

Answer 35

@maheshmeghwal9 I'm outta here. sorry, but i'll get back to u on that one.

Answer 36

Actually this question is slowly becoming an argument like a topic in our Parliament
so i m putting it as a new question.
@Vaidehi09 @Rohangrr np:)
& but both please help in new one
