Motion In Two Dimensions Question 1

Question 1 - 24 January - Shift 1

The maximum vertical height to which a man can throw a ball is $136 m$. The maximum horizontal distance upto which he can throw the same ball is

(1) $192 m$

(2) $136 m$

(3) $272 m$

(4) $68 m$

Show Answer

Answer: (3)

Solution:

Formula: Maximum height, Horizontal range

$H _{\text{max }}^{\text{mathon }}=\frac{v^{2}}{2 g}=136 m$

$R _{\text{max }}^{\text{mathon }}=\frac{v^{2}}{g}=2 H _{\text{max }}$

$=2(136)$

$=272 m$
