Two identical bodies, projected with the same speed at two different angles cover the same horizontal range R. If the time of flight of these bodies are 5 s and 10 s, respectively, then the value of R is m. (Take g=10 m/s2)
The two projectiles are projected with the same initial velocities at the 15° and 30° with respect to the horizontal. The ratio of their ranges is 1:x. The value of x is
If x and y coordinates of a projectile as a function of time (t) are given as 24t and 43.6t-4.9t2, respectively, then the angle (in degrees) made by the projectile with horizontal when t=2 s is .
A boy throws a ball into air at 45 from the horizontal to land it on a roof of a building of height H. If the ball attains maximum height in 2 s and lands on the building in 3 s after launch, then value of H is m. (g = 10 m/s2)
An object is projected with kinetic energy K from a point A at an angle 60 with the horizontal. The ratio of the difference in kinetic energies at points B and C to that at point A (see figure), in the absence of air friction is : [figure]
A projectile is thrown upward at an angle 60 with the horizontal. The speed of the projectile is 20 m/s when its direction of motion is 45 with the horizontal. The initial speed of the projectile is m/s.
Two balls with same mass and initial velocity, are projected at different angles in such a way that maximum height reached by first ball is 8 times higher than that of the second ball. T1 and T2 are the total flying times of first and second ball, respectively, then the ratio of T1 and T2 is
Two projectiles are fired from ground with same initial speeds from same point at angles (45 + ) and (45 - ) with horizontal direction. The ratio of their times of flights is
A helicopter flying horizontally with a speed of 360 km/h at an altitude of 2 km, drops an object at an instant. The object hits the ground at a point O, 20 s after it is dropped. Displacement of 'O' from the position of helicopter where the object was released is : (use acceleration due to gravity g = 10 m/s2 and neglect air resistance)
The angle of projection of a particle is measured from the vertical axis as and the maximum height reached by the particle is hm. Here hm as function of can be presented as
A particle is projected with velocity u so that its horizontal range is three times the maximum height attained by it. The horizontal range of the projectile is given as nu225g, where value of n is: (Given, 'g' is the acceleration due to gravity.)
Two projectiles are fired with same initial speed from same point on ground at angles of (45 - ) and (45 + ), respectively, with the horizontal direction. The ratio of their maximum heights attained is :
A ball having kinetic energy KE, is projected at an angle of 60 from the horizontal. What will be the kinetic energy of ball at the highest point of its flight?
The angle of projection for a projectile to have same horizontal range and maximum height is :
A particle moving in a circle of radius R with uniform speed takes time T to complete one revolution. If this particle is projected with the same speed at an angle to the horizontal, the maximum height attained by it is equal to 4R. The angle of projection is then given by :
Projectiles A and B are thrown at angles of 45 and 60 with vertical respectively from top of a 400 m high tower. If their ranges and times of flight are same, the ratio of their speeds of projection vA:vB is : [Take g=10 m s-2]
