There is a large wedge placed on a horizontal surface with its incline face making an angle of 37^(@) to the horizontal. A particle is projected in vertically upward direction with a velocity of u = 6.5 m//s from a point O on the inclined surface. At the instant the particle is projected, the wedge begins to move horizontally with a constant acceleration of a = 4 m//s^(2). At what distance from point O will the particle hit the incline surface if (i) direction of a is along BC? (ii) direction of a is along AB?

1.	There is a large wedge placed on a horizontal surface with its incline face making an angle of 37^(@) to the horizontal. A particle is projected in vertically upward direction with a velocity of u = 6.5 m//s from a point O on the inclined surface. At the instant the particle is projected, the wedge begins to move horizontally with a constant acceleration of a = 4 m//s^(2). At what distance from point O will the particle hit the incline surface if (i) direction of a is along BC? (ii) direction of a is along AB?
