Vertical projection from ground
Question

The vertical height of point P above the ground is twice that of Q. A particle is projected downward with a speed of 5 ms-1 from P and at the same time, another particle is projected upward with the same speed from Q. Both particles reach the ground simultaneously, then

Moderate
Solution

h = - 5t + 5t2 and 2h = 5t + 5t2

From these two equations, we get t = 3 s and h = distance between P and Q = 30 m .
