a stone is allowed to fall from the top of a tower 100 M high and at the same time another stone is projected vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 25 metre per second. calculate when and where the two stones will meet?

_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--

⚫Let the two stones meet after a time t.
CASE 1 :-When the stone dropped from the tower
u = 0 m/s
g = 9.8 ms−2
Let the displacement of the stone in time t from the top of the tower be s.
From the equation of motion,
s = ut + 1/2gt^2
⇒s = 0 × + 1/2× 9.8 ×t ^2
⇒ s = 4.9t^2 …………………… . (1)
______________________
CASE 2 :--When the stone thrown upwards
u = 25 ms−1
g = −9.8 ms−2(upward direction)
Let the displacement of the stone from the ground in time t be '
Equation of motion,
s' = ut+ 1/2gt^2
⇒s′ = 25 × − 1/2× 9.8 × t^2
⇒s′ = 25 − 4.9t^2 …………………… . (2)
_______________________
Given that the total displacement is 100 m.
s′ + s = 100
⇒ 25 − 4.9t^2 + 4.9t^2 = 100
⇒ t =100 /25 = 4 s
The falling stone has covered a distance given by (1) as = 4.9 × 4^2 = 78.4 m
Therefore, the stones will meet after 4 s at a height (100 – 78.4) = 20.6 m from the ground.
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
