Answer:
the stone meet at a height of 100m-80m-20m above the ground after 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Initial velocity for upper stone, w=0. Initial velocity for lower stone, 259.
Height, h=100m.
Step 2: To find
When and where the two stones will meet.
Step 3: Calculate time and position of meeting
Let the stones meet at point A after time..
Displacement for upper stone:
Displacement for lower stone:
100-x-100-x-251-5² Adding displacement for upper stone and displacement for lower stone: 100 = 25 = 45 Substitute 4s for in displacement for upper stone: x=5² -54-80m Hence, the stone meet at a height of 100m-80m-20m above the ground after 48.
