Question
Physics Question on Motion in a straight line
A ball P is dropped vertically and another ball Q is thrown horizontally with the same velocities from same height and at the same time. If an resistance is neglected, then
A
ball P reaches the ground first
B
ball Q reaches the ground first
C
both reach the ground at same time
D
the respective masses of the two balls will decide the time.
Answer
both reach the ground at same time
Explanation
Solution
Both P and Q have same initial velocity and same acceleration due to gravity so both will reach the ground at the same time.
