Questions  

The point from where a ball is projected is taken as the origin of the coordinate axes. The x and y components of its displacement are given by x = 6t and y = 8t - 5t2. What is the velocity of projection?

a
6 ms−1
b
8 ms−1
c
10 ms−1
d
14ms−1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

vx=dxdt=6 and vy=dydt=8−10tPutting t = 0 (Since we have to find initial velocity) vy = 8 - 10 × 0 = 8, v=vx2+vy2=62+82=10  ms−1

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.
