A ball of mass $160\, g$ is thrown up at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ to the horizontal at a speed of $10 \,m / s$. The angular momentum of the ball at the highest point of the trajectory with respect to the point from which the ball is thrown is nearly $\left(g=10\, m / s ^{2}\right)$ (in $kgm ^{2} / s$)

A stone is projected from a point on the ground so as to hit a bird on the top of a vertical pole of height $h$ and then attain a maximum height $2 h$ above the ground. If at the instant of projection the bird flies away horizontally with a uniform speed and if the stone hits the bird while descending, then the ratio of the speed of the bird to the horizontal speed of the stone is
