In a two-dimensional coordinate system, any vector can be broken into x -component and y -component.
Vector A⃗ can be represented as

As shown in the image, The pilot points the nose of the airplane at an angle β into the wind to compensate for the crosswind.
This angle, which tells us the direction of the vector v ⃗ (the velocity of the airplane relative to the air), is one of our target
P /A

variables. The other target variable is the speed of the airplane over the ground, which is the magnitude of the vector v ⃗P /E
(the
velocity of the airplane relative to the earth). The known and unknown quantities are:v ⃗ P /E
= is the magnitude unknown due to
North
⃗
vP /A

Here first angle of projection θ = 30
Another angle = 90o − θ

∴ R1 = R2

Hence horizontal range is same for angle of projection θ and (90o - θ) and the horizontal range depends on the angle of
projection.

Explanation:
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
23. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:
The body is able to move on a circular path due to centripetal force. The centripetal force in case of vehicle is provided by
frictional force. Thus, if the value of frictional force, μmg is less than centripetal force, then it is not possible fbr a vehicle to
take a turn and the bicycle would overturn. Thus, condition for no overturning of vehicle is,

, which is independent of mass.

25.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Explanation:
A is false but R is true.
At the highest point, the instantaneous velocity is acting horizontally and acceleration of projectile (acceleration due to gravity)
is acting vertically downward. Therefore, angle between velocity and acceleration at the highest point is 90°.

Explanation:
After refraction at two parallel fices of a glass slab, a ray of light emerges in a direction parallel to the direction of incidence, of
white light on the slab. As rays of all colours emerge in the same direction (of incidence of white light), hence there is no
dispersion, but only lateral displacement.
