$A$ ball is projected vertically up from the ground. Boy $A$,standing at the window of the first floor of a nearby building,observes that the time interval between the ball crossing him while going up and the ball crossing him while going down is $2 \ s$. Another boy $B$,standing on the second floor,notices the time interval between the ball passing him twice,during up and down motion,is $1 \ s$. Calculate the difference between the vertical positions of boy $B$ and boy $A$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)

  • A
    $8.45$
  • B
    $3.75$
  • C
    $4.25$
  • D
    $2.50$

Two balls $A$ and $B$ are placed at the top of a $180 \,m$ tall tower. Ball $A$ is released from the top at $t = 0 \,s$. Ball $B$ is thrown vertically downward with an initial velocity $u$ at $t = 2 \,s$. Both balls meet at a point $100 \,m$ above the ground. Find the value of $u$ in $m \,s^{-1}$. [Use $g = 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$]

From the top of a $64\, ft$ high tower,a stone is thrown upwards vertically with the velocity of $48\, ft/s$. The greatest height (in $ft$) attained by the stone,assuming the value of the gravitational acceleration $g = 32\, ft/s^2$,is
