A body falling freely from a given height H hits on inclined plane in its path at a height h. As a result of this impact the direction of the velocity of the body becomes horizontal. For what value of h/H the body will take maximum time to reach the ground? |

Answer» HEIGHT from which the ball is released from rest is H height upto which it MOVES vertically downward is (H-h) LET the time upto which,the ball fall vertically diwnward be t1 and time in which it covers parbolic path be t2using first equation of motiont1={2(H-h)/G}^1/2similarllyt2=(2h/g)^1/2T={2(H-h)/g}^1/2+{2h/g}^1/2. (adding both,to get the total time to REACH the ground)now,for maximum time,to reach the grounddT/dH=0On differenting it we geth/H=1/2 |
