Minimum at the highest point,Maximum at the point of projection and the point of impact

(B) $(i)$ $A$ projectile has its minimum speed at the highest point of its trajectory,where the vertical component of velocity becomes zero and only the horizontal component $u_x = u \cos \theta$ remains.$(ii)$ The speed is maximum at the point of projection and at the point where the projectile hits the ground,as the vertical component of velocity is at its maximum magnitude at these points.

$A$ body projected at a certain angle $(\neq 90^{\circ})$ from the ground crosses a point in its path at a time $t_1 = 2.3 \ s$ and from there it reaches the ground after a further time $t_2 = 5.7 \ s$. The maximum height reached by the body is (Take $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $m$)

View Solution

$A$ particle is projected with speed $u$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal from the ground. If it is at the same height from the ground at times $t_1$ and $t_2$,then its average velocity in the time interval $t_1$ to $t_2$ is .........
