Question

12. Galileo's experiment showed that if two bodies of unequal masses are dropped from the same height, the times required by them to reach the ground are equal. But if they are thrown vertically upwards with the same initial velocity, the ratio of the times required to reach the ground is equal to


(A) the ratio of their masses
(B) the inverse of the ratio of their masses
(C) one
(D) product of their masses​

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is C.) one

Galileo's experiment showed that if two bodies of unequal masses are dropped from the same height, the time required by them to reach the ground are equal. If they are thrown vertically upwards with the same initial velocity, then the ratio of the time required to reach the ground is equal to unity i.e. one
