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°.

Two friends A and B are standing a distance x apart in an open field and wind is blowing from A to B. A beat a drum and B hears the sound t1 time after he sees the event. A and B interchange their positions and the experiment is repeated. This time B hears the drum timer after he sees the event. Calculate the velocity of sound in still air v and the velocity of wind u. Neglect the time light takes in travelling between the friends.
Suppose A and B in the previous problem change their positions in such a way that the line joining them becomes perpendicular to the direction of wind while maintaining the separation x. What will be the time B finds between seeing and hearing the drum beating by A?
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.
