$A$ player kicks a football at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal with an initial speed of $30 \,ms^{-1}$. $A$ second player, standing at a distance of $21 \sqrt{3} \,m$ from the first player in the direction of the kick, starts running to catch the ball at the same instant it is kicked. What is the minimum speed of the second player to catch the ball before it hits the ground? (Take acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \,ms^{-2}$)

  • A
    $10 \,ms^{-1}$
  • B
    $8 \,ms^{-1}$
  • C
    $8 \sqrt{3} \,ms^{-1}$
  • D
    $15 \sqrt{3} \,ms^{-1}$

In a circus,a performer throws an apple towards a hoop held at $45 \, m$ height by another performer standing on a high platform (see figure). The thrower aims for the hoop and throws the apple with a speed of $24 \, m/s$. At the exact moment that the thrower releases the apple,the other performer drops the hoop. The hoop falls straight down. At what height above the ground does the apple go through the hoop (in $, m$)?

What determines the nature of the path followed by a particle?

$A$ particle moves with a constant speed of $5 \, ms^{-1}$ as shown in the figure. What is the change in velocity during half a revolution in $ms^{-1}$?

$A$ 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 $\frac{n u^2}{25 g}$,where the value of $n$ is (Given $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).
