A cricket ball is thrown by a player at a speed of 20 m/s in a direction 30 ° above the horizontal. The maximum height attained by the ball during its motion is (g = 10 m/s2) (a) 25 m (b) 5 m (c) 10 m (d) 20 m

Answer: (b). H = (u²sin ²θ)/(2g) H = (400 × 1/4)/(20) = 5 m So the answer is (b) 5 m.

Time of Flight, Maximum Height & Range

A cricket ball is thrown by a player at a speed of 20 m/s in a direction 30 $^\circ$ above the horizontal. The maximum height attained by the ball during its motion is

(g = 10 m/s2)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$H = \frac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}$
$H = \frac{400 \times \frac{1}{4}}{20} = 5\text{ m}$
So the answer is (b) 5 m.
