Solution

The correct option is C 18 s
Let t be the time after which the separation between two bodies is 18 m
Let Srel be the relative distance between two bodies after time t
Srel=18 m
Relative acceleration of two bodies during downfall =arel=gg=0
Relative initial velocity of two bodies urel=10=1 m/s
Srel=urelt+12arelt2
18=1×t+0
t=18 s
