Question

Two objects are dropped from rest from the same height. Object $ A $ falls through a distance $ d_A $ during a time $ t $, and object $ B $ falls through a distance $ d_B $ during a time $ 2t $. If air resistance is negligible, what is the relationship between $ d_A $ and $ d_B $?(a) $$ d_A = \frac{1}{4}d_B $$
, (b) $$ d_A = \frac{1}{2}d_B $$
, (c) $$ d_A = 2d_B $$
, (d) $$ d_A = 4d_B $$
, (e) It cannot be determined from the information given.
