$A$ cricket bowler releases the ball in two different ways:
$(a)$ giving it only horizontal velocity,and
$(b)$ giving it horizontal velocity and a small downward velocity.
The speed $V_s$ at the time of release is the same. Both are released at a height $H$ from the ground. Which one will have greater speed when the ball hits the ground? Neglect air resistance.
