Q. A person sitting in the ground floor of a building notices through the window, of height $1.5 m$ , a ball dropped from the roof of the building crosses the window in $0.1 s$ . What is the velocity of the ball when it is at the topmost point of the window ? $(g = 10 m / s^{2})$

$15.5 m / s$

$14.5 m / s$

$4.5 m / s$

$20 m / s$

$S = u t + \frac{1}{2} a t^{2}$

$1.5 = u (0.1) + \frac{1}{2} (10) (0.1) (0.1)$
$15 = u + 0.5$
$\Rightarrow u = 14.5 m s^{- 1}$

Q. A person sitting in the ground floor of a building notices through the window, of height 1.5m, a ball dropped from the roof of the building crosses the window in 0.1s. What is the velocity of the ball when it is at the topmost point of the window ? (g=10m/s2)

15.5m/s

14.5m/s

4.5m/s

20m/s
