    A bullet is fired with a speed of 1000 m/s in order to hit a target 100 m away. If g = 10 m/s2. The gun should be aimed

    A)  directly towards the target

    B)  5 cm above the target

    C)  10 cm above the target

    D)  15 cm above the target

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Time taken by the bullet to reach the target \[=\frac{100}{1000}s=0.1s\] \[\therefore \] N the vertical distance travelled by the bullet                 \[s=ut+\frac{1}{2}g{{t}^{2}}\]                 \[=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 10\times {{(0.1)}^{2}}\]                 \[=0.05m\]                 \[=5cm\] So, the gun should be aimed 5 cm above - target.
