An aeroplane is moving with horizontal velocity $u$ at height $h$. The velocity of a packet dropped from it on the earth's surface will be ($g$ is acceleration due to gravity)

A ball of mass $0.2 \ kg$ rests on a vertical post of height $5 m$. A bullet of mass $0.01 \ kg$, traveling with a velocity $V / s$ in a horizontal direction, hits the centre of the ball. After the collision, the ball and bullet travel independently. The ball hits the ground at a distance of $20 \ m$ and the bullet at a distance of $100 \ m$ from the foot of the post. The initial velocity $V$ of the bullet is
