A cricketer can throw a ball to a maximum horizontal distance of \(100~\text{m}\). With the same effort, he throws the ball vertically upwards. The maximum height attained by the ball is: 
1. \(100~\text{m}\)
2. \(80~\text{m}\)
3. \(60~\text{m}\)
4. \(50~\text{m}\)

A ball is projected with velocity v₀ at an angle of elevation 30°. Mark the correct statement.

(1) Kinetic energy will be zero at the highest point of the trajectory.

(2) Vertical component of momentum will be conserved.

(3) Horizontal component of momentum will be conserved.

(4) Gravitational potential energy will be minimum at the highest point of the trajectory.

Neglecting the air resistance, the time of flight of a projectile is determined by:

(1) U_vertical

(2) U_horizontal

(3) U = U²_vertical + U²_horizontal

(4) U = U(U²_vertical + U²_horizontal )^1/2

A ball is thrown from a point with a speed v₀ at an angle of projection θ. From the same point and at the same instant a person starts running with a constant speed v₀/2 to catch the ball. Will the person be able to catch the ball? If yes, what should be the angle of projection?

1. Yes, 60°

2. Yes, 30°

3. No

4. Yes, 45°

A stone is thrown at an angle θ with the horizontal reaches a maximum height of H. Then the time of flight of stone will be:

(1) $\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

(2) $2\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

(3) $\frac{2\sqrt{2H\sin \theta }}{g}$

(4) $\frac{\sqrt{2H\sin \theta }}{g}$

The horizontal range of a projectile is \(4 \sqrt{3}\) times its maximum height. Its angle of projection will be:
1. \(45^{\circ}\)
2. \(60^{\circ}\)
3. \(90^{\circ}\)
4. \(30^{\circ}\)

The maximum horizontal range of a projectile is \(400~\text{m}\). The maximum value of height(ever possible) attained by it will be: 
1. \(100~\text{m}\)
2. \(200~\text{m}\)
3. \(400~\text{m}\)
4. \(800~\text{m}\)

A particle is moving eastwards with velocity of 5 m/s. In 10 seconds the velocity changes to 5 m/s northwards. The average acceleration in this time is- 

1. Zero

2. $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}m\text{/}{s}^{\text{2}}$ toward north-west

3. $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}m\text{/}{s}^{\text{2}}$ toward north-east

4. $\frac{1}{2}m\text{/}{s}^{\text{2}}$ toward north-west

Figure shows four paths for a kicked football. Ignoring the effects of air on the flight, rank the paths according to initial horizontal velocity component, highest first

(1) 1, 2, 3, 4

(2) 2, 3, 4, 1

(3) 3, 4, 1, 2

(4) 4, 3, 2, 1

The path of a projectile in the absence of air drag is shown in the figure by dotted line. If the air resistance is not ignored , then which one of the paths shown in the figure is appropriate for the projectile ?

1. B

2. A

3. D

4. C
