Motion in a Plane · Question 14

A particle is projected with velocity u so that its horizontal range is three times the maximum height attained by it. The horizontal range of the projectile is given as nu225g, where value of n is: (Given, 'g' is the acceleration due to gravity.)

A river is flowing from west to east direction with speed of 9 km h-1. If a boat capable of moving at a maximum speed of 27 km h-1 in still water, crosses the river in half a minute, while moving with maximum speed at an angle of 150 to direction of river flow, then the width of the river is :

1. 112.5 m
2. 75 m
3. 300 m
4. 112.5 3 m

Two projectiles are fired with same initial speed from same point on ground at angles of (45 - ) and (45 + ), respectively, with the horizontal direction. The ratio of their maximum heights attained is :

1. 1+ 1-
2. 1+ 2 1- 2
3. 1- 1+
4. 1- 2 1+ 2

The maximum speed of a boat in still water is 27 km/h. Now this boat is moving downstream in a river flowing at 9 km/h. A man in the boat throws a ball vertically upwards with speed of 10 m/s. Range of the ball as observed by an observer at rest on the bank is cm. (Take g = 10 m/s2)
