Question

Two baseballs are released at the same time. One is dropped from rest and the other is given an initial horizontal velocity. Which of the following is not true? Ignore atmospheric drag. Both baseballs hit the ground at the same time. Both have the same vertical component of velocity as they reach impact. The horizontal component of velocity increases at a greater rate than the vertical component of velocity for both while they are both in the air. The horizontally-released ball has a greater speed than the other ball for the whole trip.

Explanation / Answer

horrizontal component of velocity will be constant in the entire journey.

But vertical velocity will increase due to acceleration due to gravity

so false statement is option C
