time taken for the first stone to hit the ground is given by
begin mathsize 12px style S space equals space u cross times t plus 1 half g cross times t squared u space equals space i n i t i a l space v e l o c i t y space equals space 0 semicolon space space space space g space i s space a c c e l e r a t i o n space d u e space t o space g r a v i t y semicolon space space space t space minus space t i m e t space equals space square root of fraction numerator 2 S over denominator g end fraction end root space equals space square root of fraction numerator 2 cross times 19.6 over denominator 9.8 end fraction end root equals space 2 space s end style
 
hence second stone takes only 1 s to reach the ground
