उत्तर
Given:
Speed of the ball, ux = 20 m/s
Height from which the ball is dropped, h = 100 m
Let t be the time taken by the ball to reach the ground.
Using the equation of motion, we have:
\[h = u_y t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2\]
Here,
Acceleration of gravity, g = 9.8 ms−2
Vertical component of velocity, uy = 0
\[\therefore t = \sqrt{\left( \frac{2h}{g} \right)}\]
\[ \Rightarrow t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 100}{9 . 8}} = 4 . 5 s\]
Therefore, the time required by the ball to reach the ground is 4.5 seconds.

It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometre altitude above the ground.
- If a rain drop falls from such a height freely under gravity, what will be its speed? Also calculate in km/h. ( g = 10 m/s2)
- A typical rain drop is about 4mm diameter. Momentum is mass x speed in magnitude. Estimate its momentum when it hits ground.
- Estimate the time required to flatten the drop.
- Rate of change of momentum is force. Estimate how much force such a drop would exert on you.
- Estimate the order of magnitude force on umbrella. Typical lateral separation between two rain drops is 5 cm.
(Assume that umbrella is circular and has a diameter of 1 m and cloth is not pierced through !!)
