Assertion : Two balls of different masses are thrown vertically...

Assertion : Two balls of different masses are thrown vertically upward with same speed. They will pass through their point of projection in the downward direction with the same speed. Reason : The maximum height and downward velocity attained at the point of projection are independent of the mass of the ball.

Options

AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
CIf assertion is true but reason is false
DIf both assertion and reason are false.

Correct answer

A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

Step-by-step solution

h=u t-(1 / 2) g t^2

and

v^2=u^2-2 g h

The above equations are independent of mass
