Question

A ball A is thrown up vertically with a speed u and at the same instant another ball B is released from a height h. At time t comma the speed of A relative to B is

  1. u  
  2. 2 u  
  3. u minus g t  
  4. square root of open parentheses u to the power of 2 end exponent minus g t close parentheses end root  

The correct answer is: u


    From equation of motion, we have
    v equals u plus g t
    Where u is initial velocity and t is time.
    For ball A comma blank v subscript A end subscript equals u minus g t
    For ball B comma blank u subscript B end subscript equals 0 plus g t
    therefore R e l a t i v e blank s p e e d comma blank increment v equals v subscript A end subscript minus v subscript B end subscript
    equals open parentheses u minus g t close parentheses stack j with hat on top minus open parentheses negative g t stack j with hat on top close parentheses equals u stack j with hat on top
