The ceiling of a tunnel is of 5m high. What is the maximum horizontal distance that a ball thrown with a speed of 20 m/s, can go without hitting the ceiling of the tunnel ? (Take g = 10 m/s2)
A
30 m
B
40 m
C
302m
D
203m
Answer
203m
Explanation
Solution
Q 2gu2sin2θ = 5 m
̃ 20(20)2sin2θ = 5
̃ sin q = 21 ̃ q = 30º
R = gu2sin2θ = 10(20)2sin60∘ = 20 3
