The equation of trajectory of a projectile is $y = 10x - (5/9)x^2$. If we assume $g = 10 \ m/s^2$, the range of the projectile (in meters) is:

Assertion $(A)$: The velocity of a projectile at a point on its trajectory is equal to the slope at that point.
Reason $(R)$: The velocity vector at a point is always along the tangent to the trajectory at that point.

$A$ helicopter flying horizontally with a velocity of $288 \ km/h$ drops a bomb. If the line joining the point of dropping the bomb and the point where the bomb hits the ground makes an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal, then the height at which the bomb was dropped is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $m$)

An object is projected from the ground with a speed of $20 \, m/s$ at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. Its centripetal acceleration one second after the projection is .......... $m/s^2$ [Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$].
