Two paper screens A and B are separated ...

Two paper screens A and B are separated by a distance of 100 m. A bullet pierces A and then B. The hole in Bis 10 cm below the hole in A. If the bullet is travelling horizontally at the time of hitting the screen A, calculate the velocity of the bullet when it hits the screen A. Neglect the resistance of paper and air.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


The situation is shown in fig.
`d=u sqrt((2(h_(1)-h_(2)))/g)`
`100 = usqrt((2 xx 0.1)/9.8)`
`u= 700 m//s`

Two long parallel plates A and B are separated by a distance of 4 cm with an electric field of 45 . 5 Vm^(-1) between the plates normally from plate A to plate B , as shown in the figure. An electron is projected from plate A with velocity v at an angle of 30^(@) with the surface of plate A . The maximum value of v so that the electron does not hit plate B is (Assume gravity free space, charge of electron = 1.6 xx 10^(-19) C and mass of electron = 9 . 1 xx 10^(-31) kg )
