Assume that water issuing from the end of a horizontal pipe, 7.5m above the ground, describes a parabolic path. The vertex of the parabolic path is at the end of the pipe. At a position 2.5m below the line of the pipe, the flow of water has curved outward 3m beyond the vertical line through the end of the pipe. How far beyond this vertical line will the water strike the ground?
Solution:
From the diagram,

Equation of the water path is
x2 = – 4 ay
Use the point (3, – 2.5) in (1)
(3)2 = – 4a(- 2.5)
9 = 10a
a = \(\frac{9}{10}\) substituting in (1)
(1) ⇒ x2 = -4\(\frac{9}{10}\)y …………. (2)
Use the point (x1, -7.5) in (2)

x1 = \(\sqrt{3 \times 9}\)
x1 = \(3 \sqrt{3}\) m
∴ The water strikes the ground \(3 \sqrt{3}\) m beyond the vertical line.

Samacheerkalvi.Guru 12th Physics Question 1.
If a parabolic reflector is 20cm in diameter and 5cm deep, find the distance of the focus from the centre of the reflector.
Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi.Guru 12th Physics 5 Two Dimensional Analytical Geometry - II Ex 5.5
By the property of the parabolic reflector, the position of the bulb should be placed at the focus.
By taking the vertex at the origin the equation of the reflector is y2 = 4ax.
Let PQ be the diameter of the reflector P = (5, 10)
Since P (5, 10) lies on the parabola,
102 = 4a × 5
ie., 100 = 20a ⇒ a = 5
So the focus is at a distance of 5cm from the vertex and focus is (5, 0).

Physics Class 12 Samacheer Kalvi Question 2.
The focus of a parabolic mirror is at a distance of 8cm from its centre (vertex). If the mirror 25cm deep, find the diameter of the mirror.
Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi Class 12 Physics Solutions 5 Two Dimensional Analytical Geometry - II Ex 5.5
Let the vertex be at the origin.
VF = a = 8cm
The equation of the parabola is
Y2 = 4ax = 4(8)x = 32x
Depth of the mirror = x1 = 25cm.
So, radius is 0.
⇒ y2 = 32(25) = 800
y = \(\sqrt{800}=10 \sqrt{8}=10 \times 2 \sqrt{2}=20 \sqrt{2}\) = Radius of the mirror
∴ Diameter of the mirror = 2 × 20\(\sqrt{2}\) = 40 \(\sqrt{2}\) cm of the mirror.

Samacheer Kalvi Physics Question 3.
A cable of a suspension bridge is in the form of a parabola whose span is 40 mts. The roadway is 5 mts below the lowest point of the cable. If an extra support is provided across the cable 30 mts above the ground level, find the length of the support if the height of the pillars are 55 mts.
Solution:
Class 12 Physics Samacheer Kalvi 5 Two Dimensional Analytical Geometry - II Ex 5.5
The lowest point on the cable is taken as the vertex and it is taken as the origin.
Let AB, CD be the pillars.
Span of parabola = 40 mts = distance between AB and CD
C’V = VA’ = 20 mts
Height of each pillar = 55 mts ⇒ AB = 55 mts
So, A’B = 55 – 5 = 50 mts
Thus, the point B is (20, 50).
Equation of the parabola is x2 = 4ay
Here, B is a point on the parabola, x2 = 4ay
(20)2 = 4a (50) ⇒ 4a = \(\frac{20 \times 20}{50}\) = 8
∴ The equation is x2 = 8y
Let PQ be the length of the extra support RQ.
RQ = 30, RR’ = 5 ⇒ R’Q = 25
Let VR’ be x1 ∴ Q is (x1, 25).
Q is a point on parabola
x12 = 8 x 25 = 200
x1 = \(\sqrt{200}=10 \sqrt{2}\)
The entire length, PQ = 2 x1 = 20\(\sqrt{2}\).mts.

Solution:
Samacheer Kalvi Guru Physics 5 Two Dimensional Analytical Geometry - II Ex 5.5
Give FP + F’P = 4
ie., 2a = 8 and
FF’ = 2ae = 6
ie., a = 4 and ae = 3
e = \(\frac{a e}{a}=\frac{3}{4}\)
b2 = a2(1 – e2) = 16(1 – \(\frac{9}{16}\)) = 7
So the equation of the path is an ellipse whose equation is \(\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{7}\) = 1.
