Practicing Success
A ball is thrown upwards from the plane surface of the ground. Suppose the plane surface from which the ball is thrown also consists of the points A(1, 0, 2), B(3, -1, 1) and C(1, 2, 1) on it. The highest point of the ball takes, is D(2, 3, 1) as shown in the figure. Using this information answer the question. |
The equation of the perpendicular line drawn from the maximum height of the ball to the ground, is : |
$\frac{x-1}{2}=\frac{y+3}{1}=\frac{z-5}{-2}$ $\frac{x-2}{-3}=\frac{y-3}{2}=\frac{z-1}{-4}$ $\frac{x-2}{3}=\frac{y-3}{2}=\frac{z-1}{4}$ $\frac{x+1}{-2}=\frac{y+3}{-1}=\frac{z-5}{2}$ |
$\frac{x-2}{3}=\frac{y-3}{2}=\frac{z-1}{4}$ |
$\vec{n} = 3\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 4\hat{k}$ $\vec{D} = 2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + \hat{k}$ (a, b, c) → point of line $\vec{A}\hat{i} + \vec{B}\hat{j} + \vec{C}\hat{k}$ vector || line so equation of line → $\frac{x-a}{A}=\frac{y-b}{B}=\frac{z-c}{C}$ $\frac{x-2}{3}=\frac{y-3}{2}=\frac{z-1}{4}$ |
