Two particles in the same vertical plane are thrown to strike at the same time. One is thrown from the ground and the other from a height $h$ vertically above it. The ground particle is thrown obliquely with speed $u$ at an angle $\theta$ and achieves a maximum height $H$. The second particle is thrown horizontally with the same speed $u$. What is the maximum height $h$ such that the two particles strike each other in the air?

$A$ particle is projected from a tower of height $40 \ m$ in the horizontal direction. Due to wind,a constant acceleration is provided to the particle opposite to its initial velocity. If the particle hits the ground (at the bottom of the tower) at an angle of $37^\circ$ with the horizontal,find the acceleration provided by the wind to the particle.

$A$ ball of mass $m=1 \, kg$ is thrown from the top of a building with initial velocity $v=(20 \, m/s) \hat{i} + (24 \, m/s) \hat{j}$ at time $t=0$. The change in the potential energy of the ball between $t=0$ and $t=6 \, s$, if the ball does not hit the ground, is (assume $g=10 \, m/s^2$): (in $ \, J$)
