From the top of a tower two stones, whose masses are in the ratio 1:2 are thrown one straight up with an initial speed u and the second straight down with the same speed u. Then, neglecting air resistance
- The heavier stone hits the ground with a higher speed
- The lighter stone hits the ground with a higher speed
- Both the stones will have the same speed when they hit the ground.
- The speed can’t be determined with the given data.
Answer
(C) Both the stones will have the same speed when they hit the ground.
