coin 1 is thrown upward from the top of 100m tower with a speed of 15m/s. coin 2 is dropped from the top of the tower 2.0second later. assume g is 10m/s. how far below the top of the tower des coin 1 pass coin 2

The height below the tower at which coin 1 pass coin 2 is 89.04 m.

The given parameters:

height of the tower, h = 100 m

initial velocity of coin 1, v = 15 m/s

time spent in air by coin 1 before coin 2 was dropped = 2s

To find:

Find the maximum height attained by coin 1 before falling to the ground:

Find the time taken for coin 1 to fall to the ground:

Total height of coin 1 above the ground, H = 11.25 m + 100 m = 111.25 m

But the time taken for the coin 1 to reach 11.25 m above the tower:

Total time spent by coin 1 before reaching ground with respect to coin 2:

time = (1.5 s + 4.72 s) - 2 s

time = 4.22 s

Note: the 2 s was subtracted to keep both coins at a fair starting time below the tower.

Find the total time taken for coin 2 to fall to the ground:

Height of coin 2 above the ground = 100 m

Total time taken by coin 2 before falling to the ground is calculated as:

The time  at which coin 1 will pass coin 2 is 4.22 s.

Find the height below the tower when the time is 4.22 s.

Thus, the height below the tower at which coin 1 pass coin 2 is 89.04 m.
