Height of column should be 20 mtr.

Jwala said:   9 years ago
Answer 10 m.

Aditya Ch said:   9 years ago
Answer is correct.

Applying Pythagoras theorem, tan 45 = x/40, therefore x = 40 * 1 = 40.

Krishan Suthar said:   9 years ago
Yes, Correct @Aditya.

Krishan Suthar said:   9 years ago
Yes, Correct @Aditya.

The path of the particle will be a parabolic so tan θ will not be applied the correct answer from the projectile motion will come to be 20 m.

And I also agree @Mahato.

Please derive the expression @Garry.

Horizontal range 40*2=u^2sin2θ/g. We get u=28.

Hmax=u^2sin(θ)^2/2g Hmax=20m.

40tan45°= 40m.

Viplav said:   7 years ago
40=v^2sin(90)/g.
V=20.
H=20^2 sin(45)^2/2g=15.

Answer is 15.
