# A person is standing on a truck moving with a constant velocity 15 m/s. The man throws a ball in such a way that it returns to his hand after the truck has moved 60 m. prove that angle of projection as seen from truck  is 90 degree

Dear student,
Let the angle with wihich the ball is projected be equal to .
The vertical velocity of the ball would be given by  if v is the velocity with which the ball has been projected.
The horizontal velocity of the ball would be given by.
Hence, the vertical distance covered by the ball would be given by:

Thus, if the ball has to come back to the truck, we would have: y=0.
Therefore,

Hence, the total horizontal distance covered by the ball would be given by:

Thus for maximum range, .
