A cricket ball thrown across a field is a heights h_(1) and h_(2) from the point of projection at time t_(1) and t_(2) respectively after the throw. The ball is caught by a fielder at the same height as that of projection. The time of flight of the ball in this journey is

A baseball is hit at a height h = 1.00 m and then caught at the same height. It travels alongside a wall, moving up past the top of the wall 1.00 s after it is hit and then down past the top of the wall. 4.00 s later, at distance D = 50.0 m farther along the wall. (a) What horizontal distance is traveled by the ball from hit to catch? What are the (b) magnitude and ( c) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball's velocity just after being hit? (d) How high is the wall?

A ball is projected at some angle with ground such that it is at a particular height two times at t = 4s and t = 6s . Find the maximum height of the projecticle during the motion.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 20 m/s. Calculate the maximum height attain by the ball.

When a ball is thrown up vertically with velocity v_0 , it reaches a maximum height of h. If one wishes to triple the maximum height then the ball should be thrown with velocity

A ball A is projected with speed 20 m//s at an angle of 30^(@) with the horizontal from the ground. Another ball B is released simultaneously from a point on the vertical line along the maximum height of the projectile. Both the balls collide at the maximum height of the first ball. The initial height of ball B is

A ball thrown up vertically returns to the thrower after 6s. Find (a) the velocity with which it was thrown up. (b) the maximum height it reaches, and (c) its position after 4s.

You throw a baseball straight upward. If air resistance is not neglected, how does the time required for the ball to.go, from the height at which it was thrown up to its maximum height compare to the time required for it to fall from its maximum height back down to the height from which it was thrown ? Explain your answer.

In a cricket match, a batsman hits the ball in air. A fielder, originally standing at a distance of 12 m due east of the batsman, starts running 0.6 s after the ball is hits. He runs towards north at a constant speed of 5 m//s and just manages to catch the ball 2.4 s after he starts running. Assume that the ball was hit and caught at the same height and take g = 10 m//s^(2) g = 10 m//s^(2) Find the speed at which the ball left the bat and the angle that its velocity made with the vertical.
