Q.

One evening, Kaushik was in a park where children were playing cricket. Birds were singing in a nearby tree that was 80 m tall. He observed a bird on the tree at an angle of elevation of 45 degree.

When a sixer was hit, the ball flew through the tree, scaring the bird away. 2 seconds later, Kaushik noticed that the bird was flying at the same height but at an angle of elevation of 30 degree. Meanwhile, the ball was also flying towards him at the same height with an angle of elevation of 60 degree.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

 

(iii) What is the speed of the bird in m/min if it had flown 203+1m

1 6003-1 m/min  
2 6002+1 m/min  
3 5003+1 m/min  
4 6003+1 m/min  

Ans.

(4)

Speed of the bird:

Speed=DistanceTime=203+12 m/secConvert to m/min by multiplying by 60:=203+12×60=6003+1 m/min
