Detailed Solution

The velocity impact (final velocity) is 49 ms-1.
Initial velocity of first stone u=0 ms-1
Time taken for the stone to reach the ground t=5 s
Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8 ms-2
We are asked to find the final velocity v
With the given data we can use the equation v=u+at
Here we can write the above equation as v=u+gt----(i)
Substituting all the values in the equation (i), We get       v=0+9.8×5
v=49 ms-1
Thus, the velocity impact or the final velocity is 49 ms-1.
