P is thrown vertically upwards and Q vertically downwards Mo 8 Common Test with the same initial speed. Neglect air resistance. Take downwards as the positive direction. Which of the following is TRUE for P and Q when they hit the ground? VELOCITY ACCELERATION A Both have the same velocity Both have the same acceleration B P has a greater velocity than Q | P has a negative acceleration; Q has a positive acceleration Cc P has a greater velocity than Q | Both have the same acceleration D Both have the same velocity P has a negative acceleration; Q has a positive acceleration.

When the balloon is at a certain height (h) above the ground, an object is accidentally dropped from the balloon. The object reaches the ground 4 s later. Figure 2 shows the velocity time sketch graph (where down is positive) for the vertical motion of the object from the moment it is dropped until it hit the ground. Neglect air resistance.
