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
