उत्तर
Given:
Initial speed of the ball, u = 40 m/s
Angle of projection of the ball with the horizontal, α = 60°
Also,
a = g = 10 m/s2
Horizontal range of the ball:
\[R = \frac{u^2 \sin2\alpha}{g}\]
\[= \frac{{40}^2 \sin\left( 2 \times 60^\circ\right)}{10} = 80\sqrt{3} \text{ m } \]

A player throws a ball upwards with an initial speed of 29.4 m s–1.
- What is the direction of acceleration during the upward motion of the ball?
- What are the velocity and acceleration of the ball at the highest point of its motion?
- Choose the x = 0 m and t = 0 s to be the location and time of the ball at its highest point, vertically downward direction to be the positive direction of x-axis, and give the signs of position, velocity and acceleration of the ball during its upward and downward motion.
- To what height does the ball rise and after how long does the ball return to the player’s hands? (Take g = 9.8 m s–2 and neglect air resistance).
Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of 15 m/s and 30 m/s. Verify that the graph shown in Fig. 3.27 correctly represents the time variation of the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 m/s2. Give the equations for the linear and curved parts of the plot.

A train starts from rest and moves with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 for half a minute. The brakes are then applied and the train comes to rest in one minute. Find the position(s) of the train at half the maximum speed.
A particle starting from rest moves with constant acceleration. If it takes 5.0 s to reach the speed 18.0 km/h find the distance travelled by the particle during this period.
A driver takes 0.20 s to apply the brakes after he sees a need for it. This is called the reaction time of the driver. If he is driving a car at a speed of 54 km/h and the brakes cause a deceleration of 6.0 m/s2, find the distance travelled by the car after he sees the need to put the brakes on.
Complete the following table:
| Car Model | Driver X Reaction time 0.20 s |
Driver Y Reaction time 0.30 s |
| A (deceleration on hard braking = 6.0 m/s2) | Speed = 54 km/h Braking distance a = ............ Total stopping distance b = ............ |
Speed = 72 km/h Braking distance c = ........... Total stopping distance d = ............ |
| B (deceleration on hard braking = 7.5 m/s2) | Speed = 54 km/h Breaking distance e = ........... Total stopping distance f = ............ |
Speed 72 km/h Braking distance g = ............. Total stopping distance h = ............ |
