A bullet is fired upwards at an angle of 10°
clockwise with respect to the horizontal from
a point on a hill, and it strikes a target on a
horizontal level ground 100m below the hill.
The initial velocity of bullet is 100 m/s. The
actual velocity with which the bullet will
strike the ground is
m/s.
Two projectiles are thrown with the same magnitude of initial velocity, one at an angle with respect to the level ground and the other at an angle 90 degrees. Both projectiles will strike the ground at the same distance from the projection point. Will both projectiles be in the air for the same period of time?
