Question

A Stone is dropped from a certain height and at the same time another stone is thrown horizontally from the same height.Which one will reach the ground earlier

Answer 1

Answer: both reach at the same time

Explanation: 2nd stone is thrown horizontally so it's vertical velocity is zero. That's why it's same as being dropped.

Answer 2

Answer:

Both stone will reach the ground at same time.

Explanation:

Given that,

A stone is dropped from the certain height at same time another stone is thrown horizontally from the same height.

Then both stone will reach the ground at same time because the initial vertical velocity of both stone is zero. Both stone will cover same vertical distance under the same vertical acceleration.

Hence, Both stone will reach the ground at same time.
