A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff edge with velocity . Another ball is dropped vertically from the same point at the same time. Which ball has the greater acceleration at any given instant before hitting the ground (neglecting air resistance)?
The thrown ball
The dropped ball
Both balls have the same acceleration.
The acceleration depends on the mass of the balls.
