$A$ ball is thrown upward from the top of a building at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal with an initial speed of $15 \,ms^{-1}$. If the ball hits the ground after $3 \,s$, then the height of the building is (acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$): (in $\,m$)

$A$ ball is thrown from a rooftop at an angle of $45^\circ$ above the horizontal. It hits the ground a few seconds later. At what point during its motion does the ball have $(a)$ greatest speed, $(b)$ smallest speed, and $(c)$ greatest acceleration? Explain.

$A$ particle is projected from a tower of height $40 \ m$ in the horizontal direction. Due to wind,a constant acceleration is provided to the particle opposite to its initial velocity. If the particle hits the ground (at the bottom of the tower) at an angle of $37^\circ$ with the horizontal,find the acceleration provided by the wind to the particle.

$A$ ball of mass $m=1 \, kg$ is thrown from the top of a building with initial velocity $v=(20 \, m/s) \hat{i} + (24 \, m/s) \hat{j}$ at time $t=0$. The change in the potential energy of the ball between $t=0$ and $t=6 \, s$, if the ball does not hit the ground, is (assume $g=10 \, m/s^2$): (in $ \, J$)
