An object is projected with a velocity of $20 m/s$ making an angle of $45^o$ with horizontal. The equation for the trajectory is $h = Ax -Bx^2$ where $h$ is height, $x$ is horizontal distance, $A$ and $B$ are constants. The ratio $A : B$ is ($g = 10 ms^{-2}$)

A ball is hit by a batsman at an angle of $37^o$ as shown in figure. The man standing at $P$ should run at what minimum velocity so that he catches the ball before it strikes the ground. Assume that height of man is negligible in comparison to maximum height of projectile.  ........ $ms^{-1}$
