A balloon is going vertically upward with a velocity of 15 ms^-1. When it is at a height of 50 m above the ground a stone is gently dropped from it. The stone will reach the ground in time (take g = 10 ms^-2):

Answer»

5 s
7 s
9 s
3 s

Solution :h=ut+`(1)/(2)g t^(2)` Since ballon is GOING vertically up.
`:.` Take U as -ve.50=-`15xxt+(1)/(2)10.t^(2)`
`implies 5t^(2)-15t-50=0`
`implies5t^(2)-15t-50=0`
`implies t^(2)-3t-10=0`
`implies t=5 s`
