A ball is projected from a point on the floor with a speed of 15m/s at an angle of 60° with the horizontal. Will it hit a vertical wall 5m away from the point of projection and perpendicular to the plane of projection without hitting the floor? Will the answer differ if the wall is 22m away?
In Exercise, let us take the position of mass when the spring is unstreched as x = 0, and the direction from left to right as the positive direction of x-axis. Give x as a function of time t for the oscillating mass if at the moment we start the stopwatch (t = 0), the mass is:At the maximum stretched position.
