A small sphere rolls down without slipping from the top of a track in a vertical plane. The track has an elevated section and a horizontal part is 1.0 m above the ground level and the top of the track is 2.4 m above the ground. Find the distance on the ground with respect to the point B (which is vertically ) below the end of the track as shown in figure. Where the sphere lands. During its flight as a projectile does the sphere continue to rotate about its centre of mass? Explain.

A water tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone, whose semi-vertical angle is tan ^(-1)((1)/(2)) . Water is poured into it at a constant rate of 5 cu m/min. Then, the rate (in m/min) at which the level of water is rising at the instant when the depth of water in the tank is 10 m. Water is a natural resource. What is the importance of water in our daily life?

Height of a tank in the form of an inverted cone is 10 m and radius of its circular base is 2 m. The tank contains water and it is leaking through a hole at its vertex at the rate of 0.02m^(3)//s. Find the rate at which the water level changes and the rate at which the radius of water surface changes when height of water level is 5 m.

A ladder is placed against a wall such that its foot is at a distance of 2.5 m from the wall and its top reaches a window 6 m above the ground. Find the length of the ladder.

AB is a vertical pole with B at the ground level and A at the top. A man finds that the angle of elevation of the point A from a certain point C on the ground is 60^@ . He moves away from the pole along the line BC to a point D such that CD =7m. From D, the angle of elevation of the point A is 45^@ . Then the length of the pole is:
