C) Alice and Tom will reach the surface of the lake at the same time. D) Information is not enough

Respuesta :

Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

Alice launches with horizontal velocity [tex]u=25\ m/s[/tex]

Tom simply drops straight down from the edge

Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.

Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.

Thus option c is correct
