$A$ helicopter is flying horizontally with a speed $v$ at an altitude $h$ and has to drop a food packet for a man on the ground. What is the distance of the helicopter from the man when the food packet is dropped?

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{2ghv^{2}+1}{h^{2}}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2ghv^{2}+h^{2}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{2v^{2}h}{g}+h^{2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{v^{2}}}+h^{2}$

$A$ ball is projected from a building of height $10 \ m$ with a velocity of $10 \ m/s$ at an angle of $30^\circ$ with the horizontal. What is the horizontal distance covered by the ball when it reaches the same height of $10 \ m$ again (in $m$)? $(g = 10 \ m/s^2, \sin 30^\circ = 1/2, \cos 30^\circ = \sqrt{3}/2)$

$A$ projectile thrown from the ground has initial speed $u$ and its direction makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. If at maximum height from the ground,the speed of the projectile is half its initial speed of projection,then the maximum height reached by the projectile is:
$[g = \text{acceleration due to gravity}, \sin 30^{\circ} = \cos 60^{\circ} = 0.5, \cos 30^{\circ} = \sin 60^{\circ} = \sqrt{3}/2]$

An object is projected at an angle of $45^\circ$ with the horizontal. The ratio of the horizontal range to the maximum height reached is:

$A$ projectile is fired from level ground at an angle $\theta$ above the horizontal. The elevation angle $\phi$ of the highest point as seen from the launch point is related to $\theta$ by the relation
