From a tower of height $h$,one ball is thrown downwards with a velocity $u$ and another ball is thrown horizontally with the same velocity $u$. What is the ratio of their velocities when they reach the ground?

$A$ particle is projected from a tower of height $40 \ m$ in the horizontal direction. Due to wind,a constant acceleration is provided to the particle opposite to its initial velocity. If the particle hits the ground (at the bottom of the tower) at an angle of $37^\circ$ with the horizontal,find the acceleration provided by the wind to the particle.
