A man is standing on top of a building 100 m high. He throws two balls vertically, one at t = 0 and other after a time interval (less than 2 seconds). The later ball is thrown at a velocity of half the first. The vertical gap between first and second ball is +15 m at t = 2 s. The gap is found to remain constant. Calculate the velocity with which the balls were thrown and the exact time interval between their throw.

उत्तर
Let the speeds of the two balls (1 and 2) be v1 and v2 where
If v1 = 2v, v2 = v
If y1 and y2 and the distance covered by balls 1 and 2, respectively before coming to rest then
`y_1 = v_1^2/(2g) = (4v^2)/(2g)` and `y_2 = (v_2^2)/(2g) = v^2/(2g)`
Since, `y_1 - y_2 = 15 m (4v^2)/(2g) - v^2/(2g)` = 15 m or `(3v^2)/(2g)` = 15 m
or `v^2 = sqrt(5m xx (2 xx 10))` m/s2
or v = 10 m/s
Clearly, v1 = 20 m/s and v2 = 10 m/s
As `y_1 = v_1^2/(2g) = (20 m)^2/(2 xx 10 m 15)` = 20 m
`y_2 - y_1 - 15` m = 5 m
It t2 is the time taken by the ball 2 toner a distance of 5 m, then from `y_2 = v_2^t - 1/2 "gt"_2^2`
5 = `10t_2 - 5t_2^2` or `t_2^2 - 2t_2 + 1` = 0
Where t2 = 15
Since t1 (time taken by ball 1 to cover the distance of 20 m) is 2s, the time interval between the two throws
= t1 – t2
= 2s – 1s
= 1s

In a soccer practice session the football is kept at the centre of the filed 40 yards from the 10 ft high goalposts. A goal is attempted by kicking the football at a speed of 64 ft/s at an angle of 45° to the horizontal. Will the ball reach the goal post?
A popular game in Indian villages is goli which is played with small glass balls called golis. The goli of one player is situated at a distance of 2.0 m from the goli of the second player. This second player has to project his goli by keeping the thumb of the left hand at the place of his goli, holding the goli between his two middle fingers and making the throw. If the projected goli hits the goli of the first player, the second player wins. If the height from which the goli is projected is 19.6 cm from the ground and the goli is to be projected horizontally, with what speed should it be projected so that it directly hits the stationery goli without falling on the ground earlier?
