TUTORIAL

1. An Aeroplane traveling horizontally at 78m/s at a height of 210m drops a bomb to hit a


target.

(a) At what horizontal distance from the target should the bomb be dropped. [507m]

(b) Calculate the velocity of the bomb as it reaches the ground. [100 m/s ]

2. An object is thrown horizontally with a velocity of 10m/s from the top of a 20m high
building . Where does the object strike the ground. [20.2 m ]

3. A bomb is dropped on an enemy post by an aeroplane ying with a horizontal velocity of


60km/h and at a height of 490m. How far must the aeroplane be from the enemy post
at the time of dropping the bomb so that it may directly hit the target. [167 m ]
√
4. The horizontal range of a projectile is 4 3 times of its maximum height. Calculate the
angle of projection. [300 ]

5. From the top of a building 45m high, a stone is thrown at an angle of 300 to the horizontal
with an initial velocity of 20m/s. Find

(a) The time of ight. [4.22s]

(b) The distance from the foot of the building where it strikes. [73 m ]

6. A boy wants to throw a letter wrapped over a stone to his friend across the street 40m
wide. The boy's window is 10m below friend's window. At what angle should he throw
the ball. [26.560 ]

7. A ball thrown horizontally at 22m/s from the roof of a building lands 36 m from the base
of the building. How high is the building. [12.9 m ]

8. A projectile is red in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to three times its
maximum height. What is the angle of projection? [53.10 ]

9. A ball is tossed from an upper-story window of a building. The ball is given an initial
velocity of 8.00m/s at an angle of 20.00 below the horizontal. It strikes the ground 3.00s
later.

(a) How far horizontally from the base of the building does the ball strike the ground?
[22.6m]

1
(b) Find the height from which the ball was thrown. [52.3m]

(c) How long does it take the ball to reach a point 10.0m below the level of launching?
[1.18s]
