A projectile is thrown from origin in x - y plane with speed of 10 m/s at an angle 45º above positive x-axis where x-axis is horizontal axis, y-axis is vertical axis and origin is at ground. Assuming air resistance to be negligible and g = 10m/s2 the minimum distance of projectile from a point P having coordinates (5m, 5m) is –
A
2.5
B
5
C
7.5
D
3.5
Answer
2.5
Explanation
Solution
P is directly above the highest point of the path.
