The correct answer is: 0.4 s

Given, U1=U2=22 m s-1, g=10 m s-2

The velocity vectors are perpendicular ot each other at time t,

v1=U1cos45°i^+U1sin45°-gtj^

v1=2212i^+2212-10tj^

=2i^+2-10tj^        ...1

v2=U2cos135°i^+U2sin135°-10tj^

=-2i^+2-10tj^      ...2

v1·v2=0     ( Both are perpendicular)

2i^+2-10tj^·-2i^+2-10tj^=0

-42-10t2=0

On solving,

100t2-40t=0

10t10t-4=0

 t=0.4 s
