For ball 1

\(S_1 = u_1t+ \frac12 a_1 t^2\)

\(200 - x = \frac12(10)t^2\)   .......(1)

For ball 2

\(S _2 = u_2t+ \frac12 a_2 t^2\)

\(- x = -20t + \frac12 \times 10t^2\)

\(x = 20 t - \frac 1210t^2\)       ......(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

\(200 - 20t+ 5t^2 = 5t^2\)

\(20t = 200\)

\(t = \frac{200}{20}\)

\(t = 10 sec\)

Putting the value of t in equation (1)

\(200- x = 5t^2\)

\(200-x = 5\times 100\)

\(200- 500 = x\)

\(x = - 300m\)

They will meet 300m above the ground.
