A particle is projected from O on the ground with velocity u = 5
m/s at angle
= tan –1 (0.5). It strikes at a point C on a fixed plane AB having inclination of 37º with horizontal as shown, then the x-coordinate of point C in meters is (g = 10m/s 2 )

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Ans. 5
Sol. C (
+ x, y)
= tan 37º ⇒ y =
x
⇒ u y t –
gt 2 = 
t = 1.06
so x =
× 10 × 1.06 –
= 4.64
