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
    $H$
  • B
    $2H$
  • C
    $3H$
  • D
    $4H$

An airplane is flying at a height of $1960 \, m$ with a horizontal velocity of $360 \, km/hr$. When the airplane is directly above point $A$,a body is dropped from it. How much time (in $sec$) will it take for the body to reach the ground?

$A$ body is projected horizontally with a velocity of $\sqrt{2gh}$ from the top of a tower of height $h$. It hits the ground at a distance $x$ from the tower. Then $x =$

$A$ cricket bowler releases the ball in two different ways:
$(a)$ giving it only horizontal velocity,and
$(b)$ giving it horizontal velocity and a small downward velocity.
The speed $V_s$ at the time of release is the same. Both are released at a height $H$ from the ground. Which one will have greater speed when the ball hits the ground? Neglect air resistance.

$A$ block starts from rest at the top of a frictionless slide at a height $h_1$ above the ground. The block leaves the slide moving perfectly horizontally at a height $h_2$ above the ground. The block eventually hits the ground travelling at an angle $\theta = 30^\circ$ below the horizontal. Then:

$A$ particle is dropped from a height of $20\,m$ onto horizontal ground. There is wind blowing,due to which the horizontal acceleration of the particle becomes $6\,ms^{-2}$. Find the horizontal displacement of the particle until it reaches the ground (in $m$).
