$A$ projectile has initially the same horizontal velocity as it would acquire if it had moved from rest with uniform acceleration of $3 \, ms^{-2}$ for $0.5 \, minutes$. If the maximum height reached by it is $80 \, m$,then the angle of projection is (Take $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$)

From the top of a tower,$80 \ m$ high from the ground,a stone is thrown in the horizontal direction with a velocity of $8 \ ms^{-1}$. The stone reaches the ground after a time $t$ and falls at a distance of $d$ from the foot of the tower. Assuming $g=10 \ ms^{-2}$,the time $t$ and distance $d$ are given respectively by

When a ball is thrown with a velocity of $50 \ m s^{-1}$ at an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,it remains in the air for how many seconds? (Take $g = 10 \ m s^{-2}$)

In the given figure for a projectile,find the relation for $y$ in terms of $x_1, x_2$ and $\theta$.

View Solution

An object is projected in the air with initial velocity $u$ at an angle $\theta$. The projectile motion is such that the horizontal range $R$ is maximum. Another object is projected in the air with a horizontal range half of the range of the first object. The initial velocity remains the same in both cases. The value of the angle of projection,at which the second object is projected,will be $.......$ degrees.
