Abaseball is thrown at an angle of 20° relative to the ground at a speed of 25 m/s if the ball was caught 50 m from the thrower how long was it in the air ?
2.1 s
0.5 s
10 s
5 s

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

And that the initial speed of the ball is

at an angle of

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

which is the time the ball spent in air.

it becomes positively charged by charging it

a displacement distance is size of displ
