3. Two tennis balls begin a free fall from rest from the same height, 1.0 s apart. How long after the first tennis ball begins to fall will the two tennis balls be 10 m apart? HINT: Take t = 0 to be the time the later tennis ball is dropped, and set the "initial conditions" of both tennis balls to be their positions and velocities at this time. But don't forget to answer the question exactly as it is stated!
