Two stones of masses 50g and 250g are dropped from a height of 100m simultaneously. What will be the ratio of time taken by them to touch the ground? (Take g=10 m per sec square)

Answer»

Explanation:

If AIR RESISTANCE is proportional to mass of the body, then acceleration due to it will be independent of mass and hence the two bodies will reach ground simultaneously.

a=

m

mg−f

AIA

=

m

mg−mα

=g−α

This acceleration is independent of mass and hence same TIME will be required.
