Two bullets are fired horizontally and simultaneously towards each other from roof tops of two buildings 100 m apart and of same height of 200 m with the same velocity of 25 m/s. When and where will the two bullets collide. ($g=10$ m/s$^2$)
Detailed Solution
Relative horizontal speed $=25+25=50$ m/s, so $t=\frac{100}{50}=2$ s. Vertical fall $=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times2^2=20$ m, so they collide at a height of $200-20=180$ m.
