The horizontal range and maximum height attained by a projectile...

The horizontal range and maximum height attained by a projectile are RR and HH respectively. If a constant horizontal acceleration a=g4a = \dfrac{g}{4} is imparted to the projectile due to wind, then its horizontal range and maximum height will be&

Options

  1. A(R+H),H2\left(R + H\right), \dfrac{H}{2}
  2. B(R+H2),2H\left(R + \dfrac{H}{2}\right), 2H
  3. C(R+2H),H\left(R + 2H\right), H
  4. D(R+H),H\left(R + H\right), H

Correct answer

D. (R+H),H\left(R + H\right), H
