Four projectiles are fired with the same velocities at angles 25 ° , 40 ° , 55 ° and 70 ° with the horizontal. The range of projectile will be largest for the one projected at angle _____.
Options
- A25 °
- B40 °
- C55 °
- D70 °
Correct answer
B. 40 °
Step-by-step solution
Range of projectile is given by R = u 2 sin 2 θ g Range for projection angle 25 ° is R 1 = u 2 sin 2 × 25 g Range for projection angle 40 ° is R 2 = u 2 sin 2 × 40 g Range for projection angle 55 ° is R 3 = u 2 sin 2 × 55 g Range for projection angle 70 ° is R 4 = u 2 sin 2 × 70 g So range will be maximum for 40 °
