A ball is dropped from the top of a building. The ball takes 0.5s to fall past the 3m height of a window some distance from the top of the building.If the speed of the ball at the top and at the bottom of the window are V and U respectively then(g=9.8m/s*2)  V+U=12m/s V-U=9.8m/s VU=1m/s V/U=1m/s

If V is speed of ball at top of window and U is the speed of ball at bottom of window
after passing the window in 0.5 s , then we have ,
 
U = V + (g t )
 
where g is acceleration due to gravity and t = 0.5 s is time taken to change the speed from V to U .
 
Hence we have
 
U = V + (1/2) g ................................(1)
 
If the window height 3 m is covered by the ball in 0.5 s with initial speed V , then we have
 
S = V t + (1/2) g t2
 
where S = 3 m is the window height  which is the distance covered by the ball in 0.5 s
 
Hence we have ,  3 = (1/2) V + (1/2) g (1/2)2
 
3 =  ( V / 2 ) + ( g / 8 ) ............................(2)
 
Let us eliminate g in eqn.(1) and (2) by using substitution  g = 2 ( U - V ) from eqn.(1) and
rewrite eqn.(2) as
 
3 = ( V / 2 ) + [ ( U - V ) / 4 ]
 
we get, ( V + U ) = 12 m/s from above expression
