For this case, the first thing we are going to do is write the generic equation of motion for the vertical axis.
We have then:

Where,
- <em>g: acceleration of gravity
</em>
- <em>vo: initial speed
</em>
- <em>h0: initial height
</em>
For the first body:

For the second body:

By the time both bodies have the same height we have:


Rewriting we have:



Clearing time:
