Answer:

C)The Same

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinematics equation:


y=v_(oy)*t+1/2*g*t^2

for both cases the initial velocity in the axis Y is the same, equal a zero.

So the relation between the height ant temps is the same for both cases (the horizontal velocity does not play a role)

C)The Same
