A stone is projected from the ground with velocity 25m/s25m/s. Two seconds later, it just clears a wall 5 m high. The angle of projection of the stone is (g=10m/sec2)(g = 10m/\sec^{2})

Answer

30o30^{o}

Explanation

Solution

For vertical upward motion h=ut12gt2h = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

5=(25sinθ)×212×10×(2)25 = (25\sin\theta) \times 2 - \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times (2)^{2}

⇒25 = 50 sin θ ⇒sinθ=12\sin\theta = \frac{1}{2}θ=30\theta = 30{^\circ}
