An aeroplane moving horizontally at a speed of $200 \; m/s$ and at a height of $8 \; km$ is to drop a bomb on a target. At what horizontal distance from the target should the bomb be released? (Take $g = 9.8 \; m/s^2$)

From the top of a tower of height $40\,m$,a ball is projected upwards with a speed of $20\,m/s$ at an angle of elevation of $30^{\circ}$. The ratio of the total time taken by the ball to hit the ground to its time of flight (time taken to come back to the same elevation) is (take $g=10\,m/s^2$).

An aeroplane is moving with horizontal velocity $u$ at height $h$. The velocity of a packet dropped from it on the earth's surface will be ($g$ is acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ 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.

$A$ block starts from rest at the top of a frictionless slide at a height $h_1$ above the ground. The block leaves the slide moving perfectly horizontally at a height $h_2$ above the ground. The block eventually hits the ground travelling at an angle $\theta = 30^\circ$ below the horizontal. Then:
