TopicProjectiles
TypeProjectile with bounce or impact
DifficultyChallenging +1.2 Part (a) is a standard projectile time-of-flight derivation. Part (b) requires understanding that vertical motion is unchanged by horizontal collision. Part (c) involves setting up range equations with coefficient of restitution, requiring multiple steps but using familiar projectile and collision mechanics without novel insight.

7 A particle \(P\) is projected with speed \(\mathrm { Vms } ^ { - 1 }\) at an angle \(75 ^ { \circ }\) above the horizontal from a point \(O\) on a horizontal plane. It then moves freely under gravity.
  1. Show that the total time of flight, in seconds, is \(\frac { 2 \mathrm {~V} } { \mathrm {~g} } \sin 75 ^ { \circ }\).
    A smooth vertical barrier is now inserted with its lower end on the plane at a distance 15 m from \(O\). The particle is projected as before but now strikes the barrier, rebounds and returns to \(O\). The coefficient of restitution between the barrier and the particle is \(\frac { 3 } { 5 }\).
  2. Explain why the total time of flight is unchanged.
  3. Find an expression for \(V\) in terms of \(g\).
    If you use the following page to complete the answer to any question, the question number must be clearly shown.

7 A particle $P$ is projected with speed $\mathrm { Vms } ^ { - 1 }$ at an angle $75 ^ { \circ }$ above the horizontal from a point $O$ on a horizontal plane. It then moves freely under gravity.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Show that the total time of flight, in seconds, is $\frac { 2 \mathrm {~V} } { \mathrm {~g} } \sin 75 ^ { \circ }$.\\

A smooth vertical barrier is now inserted with its lower end on the plane at a distance 15 m from $O$. The particle is projected as before but now strikes the barrier, rebounds and returns to $O$. The coefficient of restitution between the barrier and the particle is $\frac { 3 } { 5 }$.
\item Explain why the total time of flight is unchanged.
\item Find an expression for $V$ in terms of $g$.\\
