Explanation / Answer

Given

the initial velocity of the ball b1 thrown upward is u = 46 m/s

the second ball b2 dropped from a building of height 27 m

here if b1 covers a distance of x in time t so that b2 can cover a distance of 27-x m in the same time t

writing the equations of motions for b1,b2

for b1

x = ut-0.5*gt^2

for b2

27-x = 0.5*g*t^2

adding the equations we get

x = 46*t-0.5*9.8*t^2

27-x = 0.5*9.8*t^2

--------------------------------------------

27 = 46*t ==> t = 0.587 s

--------------------------------------------------

so the balls can be at same height at time t = 0.587 s
