A bomber plane moves horizontally with a speed of \(500~\text{m/s}\) and a bomb is released from it. The bomb strikes the ground in \(10~\text{s}\). The angle at which it strikes the ground will be: \((g= 10~\text{m/s}^2)\)
1. \(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{5}\right )\)
2. \(\tan \left(\frac{1}{5}\right)\)

A projectile is fired with initial velocity \(u\) at some angle \(θ\) has a range \(R\). If the initial velocity is doubled at the same angle of projection, then the range will be:
1. \(2 R\)
2. \(R/2\)
3. \(R\)
4. \(4 R\)
If the initial velocity of a projectile is doubled, keeping the angle of projection the same, the maximum height reached by it will:
1. Remain the same
2. Be doubled
3. Be quadrupled
4. Be halved
In the motion of a projectile under gravity, its:
1. Total energy is conserved
2. Momentum is conserved
3. Energy and momentum are both conserved
4. None is conserved
The range of a projectile for a given initial velocity is maximum when the angle of projection is \(45^°\). The range will be minimum if the angle of projection is:
1. \(90^°\)
2. \(180^°\)
3. \(60^°\)
4. \(75^°\)

(2) Speed of the ball
(3) Horizontal component of velocity
(4) Vertical component of velocity
| 1. | perpendicular to each other. |
| 2. | parallel to each other. |
| 3. | inclined to each other at an angle of \(45^\circ\). |
| 4. | antiparallel to each other. |
An object is thrown along a direction inclined at an angle of \(45^°\) with the horizontal direction. The horizontal range of the particle is equal to:
1. Vertical height
2. Twice the vertical height
3. Thrice the vertical height
4. Four times the vertical height
The height y and the distance \(x\) along the vertical plane of a projectile on a certain planet (with no surrounding atmosphere) are given by \(𝑦 = ( 8 𝑡 − 5t^ 2 )\) meter and \(x = 6t\) meter, where \(t\) is in seconds. The velocity with which the projectile is projected is:
1. \(8\ \text{m/s}\)
2. \(6\ \text{m/s}\)
3. \(10\ \text{m/s}\)
4. Not obtainable from the data
The range of a particle when launched at an angle of \(15^°\) with the horizontal is \(1.5\ \text{km}\). What is the range of the projectile when launched at an angle of \(45^°\) to the horizontal:
1. \(1.5\ \text{km}\)
2. \(3.0\ \text{km}\)
3. \(6.0\ \text{km}\)
4. \(0.75\ \text{km}\)
