Which of the following is not a projectile?

$A$ projectile is launched from the origin in the $xy$ plane ($x$ is the horizontal and $y$ is the vertically up direction) making an angle $\alpha$ from the $x$-axis. If its distance $r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$ from the origin is plotted against $x$,the resulting curves show different behaviors for launch angles $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ as shown in the figure. For $\alpha_1$,$r(x)$ keeps increasing with $x$,while for $\alpha_2$,$r(x)$ increases and reaches a maximum,then decreases and goes through a minimum before increasing again. The switch between these two cases takes place at a critical angle $\alpha_c$ (where $\alpha_1 < \alpha_c < \alpha_2$). The value of $\alpha_c$ is (where $v_0$ is the initial speed of the projectile and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

Two identical discs of same radius $R$ are rotating about their axes in opposite directions with the same constant angular speed $\omega$. The discs are in the same horizontal plane. At time $t=0$,the points $P$ and $Q$ are facing each other as shown in the figure. The relative speed between the two points $P$ and $Q$ as a function of time is best represented by:

$A$ particle of mass $M$ is moving in a horizontal circle of radius $R$ with uniform speed $v$. When the particle moves from one point to a diametrically opposite point,its

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 $, m$)?

The projectile motion of a particle of mass $5\, g$ is shown in the figure. The initial velocity of the particle is $5 \sqrt{2}\, m/s$ and the air resistance is assumed to be negligible. The magnitude of the change in momentum between the points $A$ and $B$ is $x \times 10^{-2}\, kg \cdot m/s$. The value of $x$,to the nearest integer,is ...... .
