  • MCQmediumKinematics part-2 Projectile Motion

    A body projected vertically upwards with a certain speed from the top of a tower reaches the ground in t₁. If it is projected vertically downwards from the same point with the same speed, it reaches the ground in t₂. Time required to reach the ground, if it is dropped from the top of the tower, is :
