Answer:
in both the cases the time will be same
Explanation:
As we know that the chunk is projected horizontally
so here the initial speed of the chunk is given as
[tex]v_x = v_o[/tex]
[tex]v_y = 0[/tex]
now in order to reach the ball to the ground we can say
[tex]h = \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
so we will have
[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}[/tex]
now if another ball is just dropped from the same height then its initial speed is also zero in both direction
so again we have
[tex]y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}[/tex]
so we can say that in both the cases the time will be same
