A projectile is fired from horizontal ground with speed vv and projection angle θ\theta. When the acceleration due to gravity is gg, the range of the projectile is dd. If at the highest point in its trajectory, the projectile enters a different region where the effective acceleration due to gravity is g′=g0.81{g}^{'} = \dfrac{g}{0 . 81}, then the new range is d′=nd.{d}^{'} = nd . The value of nn is

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Horizontal range of the projectile is d=v2sin⁡2θgd = \dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin 2\theta}{g}

Maximum height attained by the projectile is H=v2sin⁡2θ2gH = \dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin^{2}\theta}{2g}

So, after entering the new region, time taken by projectile to reach ground

t=2Hg′t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2H}{{g}^{'}}}=2(v2sin⁡2θ2g)g0.81= \sqrt{\dfrac{2\left(\dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin^{2}\theta}{2g}\right)}{\dfrac{g}{0 . 81}}}

=0.94vsinθg= \dfrac{0 . 94vsin\theta}{g}

So, horizontal displacement done by the projectile in new region is

x=0.9vsinθg×vcosθx = \dfrac{0 . 9vsin\theta}{g} \times vcos\theta

=0.9v2sin⁡2θ2g= 0 . 9\dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin 2\theta}{2g}

So, new range is d′=d2+x{d}^{'} = \dfrac{d}{2} + x

=v2sin⁡2θ2g+0.9v2sin⁡2θ2g= \dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin 2\theta}{2g} + 0 . 9\dfrac{{v}^{2}\sin 2\theta}{2g}

=0.95d= 0 . 95d

So, n=0.95dn = 0 . 95d
