Answer:The cricketer can throw the ball to a maximum horizontal distance of 100 m. To do this the ball has to be thrown with a velocity v at an angle of elevation equal to 45 degrees.
The range of an object thrown at a velocity v with an angle of elevation 45 degrees is S = v^2/g
100 = v^2/g
=> v^2 = 100*g
In the same throw, the maximum height of the ball can be derived from the equation v^2 - u^2 = 2*g*h
It is is h = (sqrt 980)^2/(2*9.8) = 980/(2*9.8) = 50 m
