प्रश्न
A man is sitting on the shore of a river. He is in the line of 1.0 m long boat and is 5.5 m away from the centre of the boat. He wishes to throw an apple into the boat. If he can throw the apple only with a speed of 10 m/s, find the minimum and maximum angles of projection for successful shot. Assume that the point of projection and the edge of the boat are in the same horizontal level.

उत्तर
Given:
Length of the boat = 1.0 m
Distance between the man and the centre of the boat (R) = 5.5 m
Initial speed (u) of throwing the apple by the man = 10 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s2
We know that the horizontal range is given by
R = `(u^2 sin 2alpha)/g`
⇒ `5 = ((10)^2 sin 2 alpha)/10`
⇒ `sin 2 alpha = 1/2`
⇒ α = 15° or 75°
Similarly, for the endpoint of the boat, i.e., point C, we have:
Horizontal range (R) = 6 m
R = `(u^2 sin 2alpha)/g`
⇒ `6 = ((10)^2 sin 2 alpha)/10`
⇒ `sin 2 alpha = 3/5`
⇒ α = 18° or 71°
For a successful shot, the angle of projection α with an initial speed of 10 m/s may vary from 15° to 18° or from 71° to 75°. The minimum angle is 15°, and the maximum angle is 75°, but there is an interval of 53° for which the successful shot is not allowed. We can show this by putting the successive value of α from 15° to 75°.

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?
