Projection Under uniform Acceleration

Question

Two cliff of heights 120 m and 100.4 m are separated by a horizontal distance of 16 m. If a car has to reach from the first cliff to the second, the horizontal velocity of the car should be

Moderate
Solution


h = 19.6 m ; R = 16 m
 

h = \frac{1}{2}g{t^2} \Rightarrow t = \sqrt {\frac{{2h}}{g}}


 

R = u\sqrt {\frac{{2h}}{g}} \Rightarrow 16 = u\sqrt {\frac{{2 \times 19.6}}{{9.8}}}


 

u = \frac{{16}}{2} = 8m{s^{ - 1}}
