Physics Question on Motion in a plane

A plane is inclined at an angle α=30\alpha = 30^{\circ} with a respect to the horizontal. A particle is projected with a speed u=2ms1u = 2 ms^{-1} from the base of the plane, making an angle q=15q = 15^{\circ} 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=10  ms2g = 10 \; ms^{-2})

A

14 cm

B

20 cm

C

18 cm

D

26 cm

Answer

20 cm

Explanation

Solution

t=2×2×sin15gcos30t = \frac{2\times2\times\sin 15^{\circ}}{g \cos 30^{\circ}}
S=2cos15×t12gsin30t2S= 2 \cos 15^{\circ} \times t - \frac{1}{2} g \sin30^{\circ} t^{2}
Put values and solve
S \simeq 20cm
