In free space a particle is projected from a point P on axis of a fixed rigid cone AOB at an angle a 37 with the axis see figure Distance of point P from the apex O is x 10 cm and the apex angle of the cone is 8 20 All the collisions of the ball with the cone are perfectly elastic Find the distance of closest approach of the ball from the apex in centimeters B P A O
