A ball is thrown form a point on a ground at some angle of projection. At the same time a bird starts form a point directly above this point of projection at a height h horizontally with speed `u`. Given that in its flight ball just touches the bird at one point. Find the distance on ground where ball strikes

A

`2usqrt((h)/(g))`

B

`usqrt((2h)/(g))`

C

`2usqrt((2h)/(g))`

D

`usqrt((h)/(g))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`v_(x) = u, h = (v_(y)^(2))/(2g), v_(y) = sqrt(2gh)`
`R = (2V_(x)V_(y))/(g) rArr R = (2usqrt(2gh))/(g) rArr R = 2u sqrt((2h)/(g))`
