A particle of mass $$m$$ is projected with a velocity $$\upsilon $$ making an angle of $${30^ \circ }$$ with the horizontal. The magnitude of $$\left( {{V_h} \times h} \right)$$ of the projectile when the particle is at its maximum height $$h$$
A.
$$\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}\frac{{{\upsilon ^2}}}{g}$$
B.
zero
C.
$$\frac{{{\upsilon ^3}}}{{\sqrt 2 g}}$$
D.
$$\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{{16}}\frac{{{\upsilon ^3}}}{g}$$
Solution :
$${V_h} = V\cos \theta $$
where $$h$$ is the maximum height
$$\eqalign{
& {V_h} \times h = \left( {\upsilon \cos \theta } \right)\left( {\frac{{{\upsilon ^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta }}{{2g}}} \right) \cr
& = \frac{{{\upsilon ^3}{{\sin }^2}\theta \cos \theta }}{{2g}} \cr
& = \frac{{\sqrt 3 {\upsilon ^3}}}{{16\,g}} \cr} $$

A river is flowing from west to east at a speed of $$5$$ metres per minute. A man on the south bank of the river, capable of swimming at $$10$$ metres per minute in still water, wants to swim across the river in the shortest time. He should swim in a direction-
A boat which has a speed of $$5 km/hr$$ in still water crosses a river of width $$1 \,km$$ along the shortest possible path in $$15 \,minutes.$$ The velocity of the river water in $$km/hr$$ is-
In $$1.0\,s,$$ a particle goes from point $$A$$ to point $$B,$$ moving in a semicircle of radius $$1.0 \,m$$ (see Figure). The magnitude of the average velocity-
A ball is dropped vertically from a height $$d$$ above the ground. It hits the ground and bounces up vertically to a height $$\frac{d}{2}.$$ Neglecting subsequent motion and air resistance, its velocity $$v$$ varies with the height $$h$$ above the ground as-
