Physics Question on Motion in a plane
A plane is inclined at an angle α=30∘ with a respect to the horizontal. A particle is projected with a speed u=2ms−1 from the base of the plane, making an angle q=15∘ with respect to the plane as shown in the figure. The distance from the base, at which the particle hits the plane is close to : (Take g=10ms−2)
A
14 cm
B
20 cm
C
18 cm
D
26 cm
Answer
20 cm
Explanation
Solution
t=gcos30∘2×2×sin15∘
S=2cos15∘×t−21gsin30∘t2
Put values and solve
S ≃ 20cm
