A particle is projected horizontally with a speed ''u'' rom the top of plane incline at an angle theta with the horizontal. How far from the point of projection will the particle strike the plane ?

Answer»

Solution :
`R=sqrt(X^(2) + y^(2)) (y/x = TAN theta)`
`=sqrt(x^(2) + (x tan theta)^(2)) =xsqrt(1 + tan^(2) theta) =x sec theta`
`x=ut, y=1/2 "gt"^(2), y/x = 1/2("gt"^(2))/(ut)`
`tan theta =("gt")/(2u), t=(2u)/gtan theta`
`x=ut =(2u^(2))/g tan theta, therefore R=(2u^(2))/g. tan theta.sec theta`
