givi [52]

For t1:

t1 = square root of 2h1 / g = square root of 2 * 0.5 / 9.8 = 0.319 sec

For t2:

t2 = sqaure root of 2h2 / g = square root of 2 * 1.0 / 9.8 = 0.451 sec

Wherein:
t = time(s) for the vertical movement
h= height
g = gravity (using the standard 9.8 m/sec measurement)

d1 = 1*0.319 = 0.319 m
d2 = 0.5 * 0.451 = 0.225 m

Where:

d = hor. distance

ratio = d1:d2
= 0.319 : 0.225
=3.19 : 2.25

The answer is 3.19 : 2.25
