A ball is thrown from the top of `36m` high tower with velocity `5m//ss` at an angle `37^(@)` above the horizontal as shown. Its horizontal distance on the ground is closest to [`g=10m//s^(2)`
`:`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
8 m
So time to reach ground is `=16/8=2` sec
on y-axis (for height of tower)
`-h=6xx2-1/2xx10xx(2)^(2)`
`h=12-22`
`h=8 m`
