Question Number 91655 by Rio Michael last updated on 02/May/20

A particle is projected with an intial velocity of u ms^(−1) at an angle α to the ground from a point O on the ground. Given that it clears two walls of hieght h and distances 2h and 4h respectively from O. (a) find the tangent of α (b) the maximum hieght (c) the range and period of the particle (d) show that u^2 = (4/(26)) gh please sir can you help me using the actual equations of projectile motion?

actually there are only three things one has to know: 1. the track of the ball is a parabola. 2. a parabola is a symmetric curve. 3. with respect to the vertex of a parabola the y−coordinate of a point is proportional to the square of its x−coordinate, see diagram, i.e. (y_2 /y_1 )=((x_2 /x_1 ))^2 i think you know all these already. so what you should do is to apply these.

okay sir mr W i really have problems with this particular projectile problem, but sir please check this out. range = 2h + 2h + 2h = 6h for maximum height using : (y_1 /y_2 ) = ((x_1 /x_2 ))^2 ⇒ (h_(max) /h) = (((3h)^2 )/h^2 ) ⇒ h_(max) = 9h sir why doesn′t this match your previous answer.

you should apply the formula in the way as the parabola in the diagram! i have said: to apply the formula the y−coordinate and x−coordinate must be with respect to the vertex, that should be clear! in your case it is: (h_(max) /(h_(max) −h))=(((3h)/h))^2

the track of the ball is a parabola which is symmetric about the position where it reaches the highest point. since the ball reaches two walls with the same hight h, the highest point (symmetry point) must be exactly in the middle of these two walls, see diagram. the track section DBC is the mirror image of OAD about point D. range R=OC=2h+2h+2h=6h (h_(max) /(h_(max) −h))=(((3h)/h))^2 =9 ⇒h_(max) =(9/8)h tan θ=((2h_(max) )/(3h))=((2×9h)/(8×3h))=(3/4) (θ=α in qn.) time from O to D is the same as time from D to C=(T/2)=time which a ball needs for a free fall from hight h_(max) to the ground. (T/2)=(√((2h_(max) )/g)) ⇒period T=2(√((2×9h)/(8g)))=3(√(h/g)) in time T the ball moves a horizontal distance R=6h, u cos θ T=R ⇒u=((6h)/(cos θ T))=((6h)/T)×(√(tan^2 θ+1)) ⇒u=((6h)/(3(√(h/g))))×(√(((3/4))^2 +1))=((5(√(gh)))/2) (u^2 =(4/(26))gh given in question is wrong!)
