$A$ body is projected into a vertical $X-Y$ plane with the $X$-axis along the horizontal and the $Y$-axis along the vertical with an initial velocity $(10 \hat{i} + p \hat{j}) \ m/s$. If the maximum height reached by the body is $50 \%$ of its range,then the value of $p$ is:

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $5$
  • D
    $2$

Two towers $A$ and $B$,each of height $20 \ m$,are situated a distance $200 \ m$ apart. $A$ body thrown horizontally from the top of the tower $A$ with a velocity $20 \ ms^{-1}$ towards the tower $B$ hits the ground at point $P$,and another body thrown horizontally from the top of tower $B$ with a velocity $30 \ ms^{-1}$ towards the tower $A$ hits the ground at point $Q$. If a car starting from rest from $P$ reaches $Q$ in $10 \ s$,then the acceleration of the car is (acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$): (in $ms^{-2}$)

$A$ body projected from the ground reaches a point $X$ in its path after $3 \ s$ and from there it reaches the ground after a further $6 \ s$. The vertical distance of the point $X$ from the ground is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $m$)
