A ball is dropped from a height of 49 m. The wind is blowing horizontally. Due to wind a constant horizontal acceleration is provided to the ball. Choose the correct statement (s).

A

Path of the ball is circular one

B

Path of the ball is a curved one

C

The time taken by the ball to reach the ground is 3.16 s

D

Actual distance travelled by the ball is less than 49m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
As initial velocity is zero. Particle will move in a straight line along `a_("net")`.

Further, `t = sqrt((2h)/(g)) = sqrt((2xx 4.9)/(9.8)) = sqrt(10) = 3.16 s`
Clearly distance travelled by the ball is more than 49m.
