Given data-
velocity (v) = 600km/h = (600x1000)/3600.
v = 166.66m/s.

Height (h) = 1960m.

We know that, the second law of motion.
s = ut + 0.5 * a *t * t----> 1

Put the given values in equation (1)
1960 = (0xt)+(0.5xtxt).

t(square) = 1960/0.5
t = 20 sec.

But again we know that velocity = distance/time.
v = d/t,
d = (v) * (t),
d = 20 * 166.66,
d = 3333.2m,
d = 3333.2/1000 = 3.33 km.
Ans. (d) = 3.33 km.

@Vinod.

May I know why didn't you put the value of acceleration while using 2nd law of motion equation.

physics keeps me always in motion

Why isn't the time 20secs when we use the formula: V=U+at?

Mustapha Daniel said:   7 years ago
Because it does not deal with height in the equation.

What is a projectile of motion?

Shanu said:   3 years ago
They haven't mentioned the time.

Then how did you guys calculate the projectile motion? Please explain me.

I'm not getting this. Please explain me in detail.

What is projectile motion and not sure about this question?

S RAMKIRAN said:   1 decade ago
Solution: see in the question its given:
Velocity= 600Km/hr = 600x1000/3600 m/s=166.66m/s
Ht=1960m.

To Find: The range of the projectile (R).
Its actually a Projetile motion .

For a projectile Ht=1/2*g*t*t.There fore we get t= 20s.
R=V*t=166.66*20=3333.33m/s=3.333Km/hr.
