$A$ fighter jet is flying horizontally at a certain altitude with a speed of $200 \; m/s$. When it passes directly overhead an anti-aircraft gun,a bullet is fired from the gun at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal to hit the jet. If the bullet speed is $400 \; m/s$,the value of $\theta$ will be $\dots \; ^\circ$.

$A$ cricket fielder can throw a cricket ball with a speed $v_{0}$. If he throws the ball while running with speed $u$ at an angle $\theta$ to the horizontal,find:
$(a)$ The effective angle to the horizontal at which the ball is projected in the air as seen by a spectator.
$(b)$ The time of flight.
$(c)$ The horizontal range from the point of projection at which the ball will land.
