Three balls,$A, B$ and $C$ are released and all reach the point $X$ (shown in the figure). Balls $A$ and $B$ are released from two identical structures,one kept on the ground and the other at height $h$ from the ground as shown in the figure. They take time $t_A$ and $t_B$ respectively to reach $X$ (time starts after they leave the end of the horizontal portion of the structure). The ball $C$ is released from a point at height $h$,vertically above $X$ and reaches $X$ in time $t_C$. Choose the correct option.

  • A
    $t_C < t_A = t_B$
  • B
    $t_C = t_A = t_B$
  • C
    $t_C = t_A < t_B$
  • D
    $t_B < t_A = t_C$
