$A$ boy throws a ball with a velocity $u$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. At the same instant,he starts running with a uniform velocity to catch the ball before it hits the ground. To achieve this,he should run with a velocity of

  • A
    $u \cos \theta$
  • B
    $u \sin \theta$
  • C
    $u \tan \theta$
  • D
    $u \sec \theta$

$A$ body is thrown at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal with a velocity of $30\; m/s$. After $1\; s$,its velocity will be (in $m/s$) $\left(g=10\; m/s^{2}\right)$

$A$ projectile is given an initial velocity of $\hat{i}+2 \hat{j} \,ms^{-1}$. The Cartesian equation of its path is ($x$ and $y$ are in metres and $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$)

It is possible to project a particle with a given velocity in two possible ways so as to make them pass through a point $P$ at a horizontal distance $r$ from the point of projection. If $t_1$ and $t_2$ are times taken to reach this point in two possible ways,then the product $t_1 t_2$ is proportional to
