A small body is released from point A of smooth parabolic path y = x 2 , where y is vertical axis and x is horizontal axis at ground as shown. The body leaves the surface from point B. If g = 10 m/s 2 then total horizontal distance in meters travelled by body before it hits ground is.

Text Solution

CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Ans. 0008
Sol.

H 1 = (2) 2 = 4m
H 2 = (1) 2 = 1 m
∴ v = 
v = 
v = 
Now tan θ =
= 
H 2 = x tan θ –
