An aeroplane is flying horizontally at a height of `980 m` with velocity `100 ms^(-1)` drops a food packet.A person on the ground is `414 m` ahead horizontally from the dropping point.At what velocity should he move so that he can catch the food packet.

A

`50sqrt2ms^(-1)`

B

`50/sqrt2ms^(-1)`

C

`100ms^(-1)`

D

`200ms^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`T=sqrt((2h)/g),R=usqrt((2h)/g)`
Remaining distance`=(R-414),v=R-414/T`
