Given:
Two bodies are projected horizontally from the same elevated point in opposite directions with speeds 3 m/s and 12 m/s respectively.
To find:
Separation when velocity vectors are perpendicular ?
Calculation:
Final velocity vector for 1st projectile :
Final velocity vector for 2nd projectile :
Since these vectors are perpendicular:
Now , separation will be :
So, separation will be 9 metres
