The horizontal range (R ) of a projectil...

The horizontal range (R ) of a projectile becomes (R + 2 H) from `R` due to a wind in horizontal direction. Here `H` is the maximum height reached by the projectile. What constant horizontal acceleration is imparted by the wind ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the constant horizontal acceleration imparted by the wind when the horizontal range of a projectile increases due to this acceleration. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: - The original horizontal range of the projectile is \( R \). - Due to the wind, the new range becomes \( R + 2H \), where \( H \) is the maximum height reached by the projectile. ...
