Projection Under uniform Acceleration
Question

A body is projected from height of 60 m with a velocity 10 ms-1 at angle 300 to horizontal. The time of flight of the body is [g =10 ms-2]

Moderate
Solution

 

\large h = - u\sin \theta t + \frac{1}{2}g{t^2}


 

\large h = \frac{1}{2}g{t^2} - u\sin \theta t


 

\large 60 = 5{t^2} - 10\frac{1}{2}t


 

\large 5{t^2} - 5t - 60 = 0 \Rightarrow {t^2} - t - 12 = 0
