Question

A fighter jet is flying horizontally at a certain altitude with a speed of 200 &#160; m &#160; s - 1 . When it passes directly overhead an anti-aircraft gun, a bullet is fired from the gun, at an angle &#952; with the horizontal, to hit the jet. If the bullet speed is 400 &#160; m &#160; s - 1 , the value of &#952; will be _____ &#176; .

Aicharya · Accepted Answer

In order to hit, horizontal velocity of both moving object should be same, V 1 = V 2 cos &#952; &#8658; 200 = 400 cos &#952; &#8658; cos &#952; = 1 2 &#160; &#8658; &#952; = 60 &#176;
