Cricket Ball Speed and Angle: Will It Go for a Six?
Question: In the cricket game,a batsman strikes the ball such that it moves with a speed 30 ms-1 at an angle 30o with the horizontal. The boundary line of the cricket ground is located at a distance of 75 m from the batsman.Will the ball go for a six?(Neglect air resistance, take g=9.8 ms-2) Solution:…

Projectile Motion: Angle for Equal Height and Range
Question What is the value of angle of projection for which the height of the projectile (H) and the range (R)of the projectile are the same? Solution: Height and range Maximum height of the projectile (H) Height of the projectile (H) $${H=\frac{u^2 \sin^2\theta}{2g}}$$ Range of the projectile $${R=\frac{u^2\sin 2 \theta}{g}}$$ $${H=R}$$ $${\frac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta}{g}}$$ $${\frac{\sin^2\theta}{2}=2\sin\theta\cos\theta}$$ $${\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=4}$$…
