A particle is projected with a velocity 40 m/s at an angle 30o with the horizontal. Find the change in velocity when it is at a height of 15 m from the ground, (g = 10 m/s2)

a
10 m/s
b
20 m/s
c
5 m/s
d
203  m/s

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Horizontal velocity remains constantVertical velocity changesInitial vertical velocity  usinθ=40sin300                                              = 20 m/sAt height 15 m its vertical velocity uy2 = 202−2g15= 400 – 300 uy2 = 202−2g15Change in velocity = 20 – 10 = 10 m/s.

Assertion : When the velocity of projection of a body is made n times, its time of flight becomes n times.

Reason : Range of projectile does not depend on the initial velocity of a body.
