View
A ball is thrown from a point with a speed $v _ { 0 }$ at an angle of projection $\theta$. From the same point and at the same instant person starts running with a constant speed $v _ { 0 } / 2$ to catch the ball. Will the person be able to catch the ball? If yes, what should be the angle of projection?
(1) yes, $60 ^ { \circ }$
(2) yes, $30 ^ { \circ }$
(3) no
(4) yes, $45 ^ { \circ }$
