Q129 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2023 (18 May Shift 2) · Physics
Two bodies of masses $12 \mathrm{~kg}$ and $6 \mathrm{~kg}$ are projected simultaneously with velocities $15 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ and $20 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ respectively from the top of a tower of height $25 \mathrm{~m}$.
The body of mass $12 \mathrm{~kg}$ is projected vertically upwards and the body of mass $6 \mathrm{~kg}$ is projected horizontally. The maximum height reached by the centre of mass of the system of two bodies from the ground.
$$
\left(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right)
$$
- Correct answerA$5 \mathrm{~m}$
- B$25 \mathrm{~m}$
- C$30 \mathrm{~m}$
- D$50 \mathrm{~m}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
