A ball was thrown by a boy a at angle 60^(@) with horizontal at height 1 m from ground. Boy B is running in the plane of motion of ball and catches the ball at height 1 m from ground. He finds the ball falling vertically. If the boy is running at a speed 20 km/hr. Then the velocity of projection of ball is-

A car P is moving with a uniform speed 5sqrt3 m//s towards a carriage of mass 9 kg at rest kept on the rails at a point B as shown in figure. The height AC is 120 m. Cannon balls of 1 kg are fired from the car with an initial velocity 100m//s at an angle 30^@ with the horizontal. The first cannon hall hits the stationary carriage after a time t_0 and sticks to it. Determine t_0 . At t_0 , the second cannon ball is fired. Assume that the resistive force between the rails and the carriage is constant and ignore the vertical motion of the carriage throughout. If the second ball also hits and sticks to the carriage, what will be the horizontal velocity of the carriage just after the second impact?

A circus wishes to develop a new clown act. Fig. (1) shows a diagram of the proposed setup. A clown will be shot out of a cannot with velocity v_(0) at a trajectory that makes an angle theta=45^(@) with the ground. At this angile, the clown will travell a maximum horizontal distance. The cannot will accelerate the clown by applying a constant force of 10, 000N over a very short time of 0.24s . The height above the ground at which the clown begins his trajectory is 10m . A large hoop is to be suspended from the celling by a massless cable at just the right place so that the clown will be able to dive through it when he reaches a maximum height above the ground. After passing through the hoop he will then continue on his trajectory until arriving at the safety net. Fig (2) shows a graph of the vertical component of the clown's velocity as a function of time between the cannon and the hoop. Since the velocity depends on the mass of the particular clown performing the act, the graph shows data for serveral different masses. If a clown holds on to hoop instead of passing through it, what is the position of the cable so that he doesn't hit his head on the ceiling as he swings upward?

A ball is thrown at an angle theta up to the top of a cliff of height L, from a point at a distance. L from the base, as shown in figure. Assuming that one of the following quantities is the initial speed required to make the ball hit right at the edge of the cliff, which one is it :-

Two very small balls A and B of masses 4.0kg and 5.0kg are affixed to the ends of a light inextensible cord that passes through a frictionless ring of radius negligible compared to the length of the cord. The ring is fixed at some height above the ground . Ball A is pulled aside and given a horizontal velocity so that it stars moving on a circular path parallel to the ground, keeping ball B in euilibrium as shown. speed of the ball A is closest to
