Answer to Problem 7STP
The correct option is (d) the two objects will hit the ground at the same time.
Explanation of Solution
Here both objects will hit the ground at the same time. This is because in vertical direction both are subjected to same acceleration due to gravity.
For both orange and bullet.
From the equation of motion
Here vertical distance is
Hence, which is same for both bullet and orange.
Conclusion:
The correct option is (d) the two objects will hit the ground at the same time.
