Define projectile motion and projectile particle.
(N/A) Projectile motion is the form of motion experienced by an object or particle (a projectile) that is projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only. The path followed by a projectile is called its trajectory.
$A$ projectile particle is any object that is given an initial velocity and then allowed to move in space under the influence of gravity alone. Examples include a ball thrown in the air,a bullet fired from a gun,or a javelin thrown by an athlete.

$A$ projectile is thrown with a velocity of $50 \, m/s$ at an angle of $53^o$ with the horizontal. Determine the instants at which the projectile is at the same height.
Difficult
View SolutionFour projectiles are fired with the same velocities at angles $25^{\circ}, 40^{\circ}, 55^{\circ}$ and $70^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The range of the projectile will be largest for the one projected at angle $.......$ . (in $^{\circ}$)
If the height of a projectile at a time of $2 \ s$ from the beginning of motion is $60 \ m$,then the time of flight of the projectile is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $s$)
Galileo writes that for angles of projection of a projectile at angles $(45^\circ + \theta)$ and $(45^\circ - \theta)$,the horizontal ranges described by the projectile are in the ratio of (if $\theta \le 45^\circ$):
Easy
View Solution$A$ ball $A$ is projected vertically upwards with a certain initial speed $u$. Another ball $B$ of the same mass is projected at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the vertical with the same initial speed $u$. At the highest point,the ratio of the potential energy of ball $A$ to that of ball $B$ will be: $(\sin 90^{\circ}=1, \sin 60^{\circ}=\cos 30^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \sin 30^{\circ}=\cos 60^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2})$
