Consider a shell that has a muzzle velocity of fired from the tail gun of an airplane, moving horizontally with a velocity of . The tail gun can be directed at any angle with the vertical, in a plane of motion of the airplane. The shell is fired when the plane is above the point on the ground. The plane is above the point on the ground when the shell hits the ground. (Assume for simplicity that the earth is flat)


Important Questions on Kinematics II



A football is kicked with a speed of at an angle of to the positive -direction taken along the horizontal. At that instant, an observer moves past the football in a car that moves with a constant speed of in the positive -direction. Take positive -direction vertically upwards.

Three projectiles and are thrown simultaneously from the same point in the same vertical plane. Their trajectories are shown in the figure. Then which of the following statement(s) is/are correct.

Two balls are thrown from an inclined plane at an angle of projection with the plane one up the inclined plane and the other down the incline as shown in the figure. If , and be their respective ranges, then

Two particles are projected with speed and simultaneously from same point as shown in the figure.
Then:

Two balloons are simultaneously released from two buildings and . Balloon from rise with constant velocity . While the other one rises with a constant velocity of . Due to wind, the balloons gather horizontal velocity , where is the height from the point of release. The buildings are at a distance of and after some time the balloons collide. Choose the correct option(s).
