A boy throws a ball with a velocity u at an angle theta with the horizontal. At the same instant he starts running with uniform velocity to catch the ball before it hits the ground. To achieve this he should run with a velocity of

A ball is projected from the point O with velocity 20 m//s at an angle of 60^(@) with horizontal as shown in figure. At highest point of its trajectory it strikes a smooth plane of inclination 30^(@) at point A. The collision is perfectly inelastic. The maximum height from the ground attained by the ball is (g=10 m//s^(2))

A football player kicks a ball at an angle of 37^(@) to the horizontal with an initial speed of 15 ms^(-1) .

A boy sitting at the rear end of a railway compartment of a train, running at a constant acceleration on horizontal rails throws towards the fore end of the compartment with a muzzle velocity of 20m/sec at an angle 37^(@) above the horizontal, when the train is running at a speed of 10 m/sec. If the same boy catches the ball without moving from his seat and at the same height of projection,find the speed of the train at the instant of his catching the ball.
