Irrespective of mass a freely falling object travels with a velocity of gt where g is acceleration due to gravity and t is time in seconds
The 10kg lead ball acquires a velocity of 20m/s in 2 sec
Distance travelled s = ut +(1/2) *g*t^2 for lead ball
Where as super man travelled with uniform velocity
Distance = 20*t
Equating both 1&2 , we get 5t^2 -20t = 0
5t(t-4) = 0; t =4;
After t = 4 seconds both objects meet
After travelling 80 meters from top of building both Superman and lead ball meet.
At 334.87 meters of building we have to subtract 80 indicates the height from ground where two objects meet is 254.87

Superman is sitting by a window of the Empire State building 34.4 m above the street. Kermit the frog hurtles past, having been dropped from a window 42.8 m high. Superman carefully opens the window and takes off after Kermit 0.6 s after Kermit falls past. As soon as he catches Kermit, he begins a constant deceleration, stopping just as he reaches the ground. Find the minimum constant acceleration Superman must descend with in order to catch Kermit so that...

Superman is standing on top of a 160-m high building threw a villain upwards with an initial velocity of 50 m/s. Assume g= -9.80 m/s2. What is the speed, in m/s, of the villain after 6.5 seconds?
You're standing at the bottom of a tall building and your friend is at the top. The height of the building is 15 m. She drops a ball to you. The moment she lets go of the ball, you toss a second ball up in the air. You want to be able to catch both balls at the same time (you're auditioning for a spot on the US Olympic juggling team and you think this will impress the scout). At...
