Two particles...

Question

Two particles were projected one by one with the same initial velocity from the same point on level ground. They follow the same parabolic trajectory and are found to be in the same horizontal level, separated by a distance of 1 m, 2 s after the second particle was projected. Assume that the horizontal component of their velocities is 0.5 m s $^{- 1}$ . Find
a. the horizontal range of the parabolic path.
b. the maximum height for the parabolic path.

Solution

Distance travelled by 2nd particle in $2 s$ = $0.5 \times 2 = 1 m$
Horizontal range $= 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 m$
Flight time $= 4 + 2 = 6 s$
$6 = \frac{2 u sin θ}{g} u sin θ = 30$
$H = \frac{u^{2} {sin}^{2} θ}{2 g} = \frac{900}{2 \times 10} = 45$

The surface of a planet is found to be uniformly charged. When a particle of mass $m$ and no charge is thrown at an angle from the surface of the planet, it has a parabolic trajectory as in projectile motion with horizontal range $L$ . A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ with the same initial conditions has a range $\frac{L}{2}$ . The range of particle of mass $m$ and charge $2 q$ with the same initial conditions is :
