A cricket bowler releases the ball in two different ways
(a) giving it only horizontal velocity and
(b) giving it horizontal velocity and a small downward velocity.
The speed `v_(s)` at the time of release is the same . Both are released at a height H from the ground . which one will have greater speed when the ball hits the ground ? Neglect air resistance .

To solve the problem, we will analyze the motion of the cricket ball in both cases using the principles of projectile motion and energy conservation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Analyze Case (a) - Horizontal Velocity Only** 1. The ball is released from height \( H \) with only horizontal velocity \( v_s \). 2. The vertical motion is influenced by gravity, and the initial vertical velocity \( u_y = 0 \). ...
