Two elevators operating in parallel shafts, approach each other from positions which are 120 m apart. The upper car has a downward acceleration of 0.5 m/s, and the lower car is being accelerated upward 1.0 m/s?. When and where will they pass each other if the lower car starts 1 second after the other? Draw the figure properly. No figure no point.

Q1/A man standing at the top of a building throws a ball vertically upward with a velocity of 40 m /s The ball reaches the ground 4.25 s later. (a) What is the maximum height reached by the ball? (b) How high is the building? (c) With what velocity will it reach the ground? Q2 / A car starts from rest and moves with an acceleration of 1 m/ s2 for 1 s. The motor is then turned off and the car is allowed to decelerate, due to friction, for 10 s at a rate of 5 cm/s2 Then the brakes are applied and the car is brought to rest in 5 more seconds. Calculate the total distance traveled by the car.
