Question

7. Galileo's experiment showed that if two bodiesof unequal masses are dropped from the sameheight, the times required by them to reach theground are equal. But if they are thrown verti-cally upwards with the same initial velocity theratio of the times required to reach the groundis equal to(N.C.E.R.T. 1978)(1) the ratio of their masses(2) the inverse of the ratio of their masses(3) one(4) product of their masses​

Answer 1

Answer:

(3) one

Explanation:

no matter how and in which direction we throw the objects and irrespective of their masses the acceleration due to gravity acting on the bodies remains the same.

therefore the time taken by them to reach their maximum height and drop back will be the same therefore the ratio will be one
