Projectile Motion
Projectile Motion: Overview
This topic will introduce us to the projectile motion. It also elaborates on the equation of the path of projectile along with the horizontal range, time and height of a projectile. We will encounter some numerical exercises for better understanding.
Important Questions on Projectile Motion
A ball is projected at an angle of above with the horizontal from the top of a tower and strikes the ground in at angle of with the horizontal. Find the height of the tower and the speed with which it was projected.

An object is kept fixed at the point and on a plank raised above the ground. At time the plank starts moving along the direction with an acceleration At the same instant a stone is projected from the origin with a velocity as shown. A stationary person on the ground observes the stone hitting the object during its downward motion at an angle of to the horizontal. All the motions are in the plane. Find and the time after which the stone hits the object. Take

A large heavy box is sliding without friction down a smooth plane of inclination . From a point on the bottom of the box, a particle is projected inside the box. The initial speed of the particle with respect to the box is and the direction of projection makes an angle with the bottom as shown in the figure:
If the horizontal displacement of the particle as seen by an observer on the ground is zero, find the speed of the box with respect to the ground at the instant when the particle was projected.

Two guns situated on the top of a hill of height fire one shot each with the same speed at some interval of time. One gun fires horizontally and other fires upwards at an angle of with the horizontal. The shots collide in air at point . Find the time interval between the firings.

A projectile of mass is projected with an initial velocity , at an angle with the horizontal. What is the torque of the weight of the particle about the point of projection when the particle is at the highest point?

A particle is projected on a frictionless inclined plane of inclination at an angle of projection from the inclined plane as shown in the figure. If after the first collision from the plane, the particle returns to its point of projection, then what is the value of the reciprocal of the coefficient of restitution between the particle and the plane?
