A particle is projected from a tower of height $40\ m$ in horizontal direction. Due to wind a constant acceleration is provided to the particle opposite to its initial velocity. If particle hits the ground (at the bottom of the tower) at an angle $37^o$ with horizontal, then find acceleration provided by wind to the particle

A slide with a frictionless curved surface, which becomes horizontal at its lower end,, is fixed on the terrace of a building of height $3 h$ from the ground, as shown in the figure. A spherical ball of mass $\mathrm{m}$ is released on the slide from rest at a height $h$ from the top of the terrace. The ball leaves the slide with a velocity $\vec{u}_0=u_0 \hat{x}$ and falls on the ground at a distance $d$ from the building making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. It bounces off with a velocity $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}$ and reaches a maximum height $h_l$. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$ and the coefficient of restitution of the ground is $1 / \sqrt{3}$. Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?

($AV$) $\vec{u}_0=\sqrt{2 g h} \hat{x}$ ($B$) $\vec{v}=\sqrt{2 g h}(\hat{x}-\hat{z})$  ($C$) $\theta=60^{\circ}$  ($D$) $d / h_1=2 \sqrt{3}$
