Solution
The correct option is A√h8g Initial velocity of 2nd stone. Using v2=u2+2as 0=u2−2g(4h) ⇒u2=√8gh Initial velocity of first stone is u1=0 Relative velocity u21=u2−u1=√8gh Initial relative distance between stones is drel=h Relative acceleration between stones is arel=−g−(−g)=0 Using t=drelurel t=h√8gh=√h8g
