A bullet fired from a gun falls at a distance half of its maximum range. The angle of projection of the bullet is

Options

  1. A(45^ )
  2. B(60^ )
  3. C(30^ )
  4. D(15^ )

Correct answer

D. (15^ )

Step-by-step solution

As, we know that for a projectile motion, maximum range, (R_ = u^2 g and h_ = R_ 4 ) Given, ( R= R_ 2 ) ( R_ 2 = u^2 2 g =R ) ...(i) where, (R= u^2 2 g ) Hence, ( u^2 2 g = u^2 2 g ) [From Eq. (i)] ( 2 = 1 2 ) ( 2 =30^ =15^ ) Hence, the correct option is (d).
