A body thrown up with an initial speed of reaches the ground after
Time of flight
A stone is dropped from a certain height which can reach the ground in 5 second. If the stone is stopped after 3 second of its fall and then allowed to fall again, then the time taken by the stone to reach the ground for the remaining distance is
Total distance
Distance moved in 3 sec
Remaining distance
If t is the time taken by the stone to reach the ground for the remaining distance then
A man in a balloon rising vertically with an acceleration of releases a ball 2 sec after the balloon is let go from the ground. The greatest height above the ground reached by the ball is
Height travelled by ball (with balloon) in 2 sec
Velocity of the balloon after 2 sec
Now if the ball is released from the balloon then it acquire same velocity in upward direction.
Let it move up to maximum height
⇒
∴ = 4.9m
Greatest height above the ground reached by the ball
A balloon is at a height of 81 m and is ascending upwards with a velocity of 12 m/s. A body of 2 kg weight is dropped from it. If , the body will reach the surface of the earth in
An aeroplane is moving with a velocity u. It drops a packet from a height h. The time t taken by the packet in reaching the ground will be
The initial velocity of aeroplane is horizontal, then the vertical component of velocity of packet will be zero.
So
Water drops fall at regular intervals from a tap which is 5 m above the ground. The third drop is leaving the tap at the instant the first drop touches the ground. How far above the ground is the second drop at that instant
Time taken by first drop to reach the ground
As the water drops fall at regular intervals from a tap therefore time difference between any two drops
In this given time, distance of second drop from the tap
Its distance from the ground
A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the top of a tower at . It strikes the pond near the base of the tower after 3 seconds. The height of the tower is
An aeroplane is moving with horizontal velocity u at height h. The velocity of a packet dropped from it on the earth's surface will be (g is acceleration due to gravity)
Horizontal velocity of dropped packet = u
Vertical velocity
∴ Resultant velocity at earth
A rocket is fired upward from the earth's surface such that it creates an acceleration of 19.6 m/sec2. If after 5 sec its engine is switched off, the maximum height of the rocket from earth's surface would be [MP PET 1995]
Given
Resultant velocity of the rocket after 5 sec
Height achieved after 5 sec,
On switching off the engine it goes up to height where its velocity becomes zero.
∴ Total height of rocket
A bullet is fired with a speed of in order to hit a target 100 m away. If , the gun should be aimed
Bullet will take sec to reach target.
During this period vertical distance (downward)
travelled by the bullet
So the gun should be aimed 5 cm above the target.
