To hit a car a gun is positioned horizontally behind the car along a straight road. The car is moving on the road with a uniform velocity of `72 km*h^(-1)` . If the gun is fired at an angle of `45^@` with the horizontal , at a distance of 500 m from the car, find the distance of the car from the gun just when the bullet hits the car. Given, `g=10 m/s^2`.
