A ball is a thrown from the top of a tower of 61 mhigh with a velocity `24.4 ms^(-1)` at an elevation of `30^(@)` above the horizontal. What is the distance from the foot of the tower to the point where the ball hits the ground ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


`h = (1)/(2)g t^(2) - (u sin theta)t rArr t = 5 "seconds"`
Also, `d = (u cos theta)t = 105.65 m`

A ball is throw from the top of a tower of 61 m high with a velocity 24.4 ms^(-1) at an elevation of 30^(@) above the horizon. What is the distance from the foot of the tower to the point where the ball hits the ground ?

A ball thrown horizontally with velocity v from the top of a tower of height h reaches the ground in t seconds. If another ball of double the mass is thrown horizontally with velocity 3v from the top of another tower of height 4h it reaches the ground in (seconds). In the above problem if the first ball reaches the ground at a horizontal distance d, the second ball reaches the ground at a horizontal distance
