There is a large wedge placed on a horizontal surface with its incline face making an angle of `37^(@)` to the horizontal. A particle is projected in vertically upward direction with a velocity of `u = 6.5 m//s` from a point O on the inclined surface. At the instant the particle is projected, the wedge begins to move horizontally with a constant acceleration of `a = 4 m//s^(2)`. At what distance from point O will the particle hit the incline surface if
(i) direction of a is along BC?
(ii) direction of a is along AB?

Answer

(i) `3.38 m` (ii) `2.5 m`
