$A$ body is projected from the top of a tower with a velocity $\overrightarrow{u} = 3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j} + 5 \hat{k} \text{ m/s}$, where $\hat{i}, \hat{j},$ and $\hat{k}$ are unit vectors along east, north, and vertically upwards, respectively. If the height of the tower is $30 \text{ m}$, find the horizontal range of the body on the ground. (Take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$) (in $\text{ m}$)

  • A
    $15$
  • B
    $25$
  • C
    $9$

$A$ gun can fire shells with maximum speed $v_0$ and the maximum horizontal range that can be achieved is $R = \frac{v_0^2}{g}$. If a target farther away by distance $\Delta x$ (beyond $R$) has to be hit with the same gun,show that it could be achieved by raising the gun to a height at least $h = \Delta x \left[ 1 + \frac{\Delta x}{R} \right]$.

Two particles in the same vertical plane are thrown to strike at the same time. One is thrown from the ground and the other from a height $h$ vertically above it. The ground particle is thrown obliquely with speed $u$ at an angle $\theta$ and achieves a maximum height $H$. The second particle is thrown horizontally with the same speed $u$. What is the maximum height $h$ such that the two particles strike each other in the air?
