Two projectile thrown at 30°30 ° and 45°45 ° with the horizontal respectively, reach the maximum height in same time. The ratio of their initial velocities is

Options

  1. A1:21: \sqrt{2}
  2. B2:12: 1
  3. C2:1\sqrt{2}: 1
  4. D1:21: 2

Correct answer

C. 2:1\sqrt{2}: 1

Step-by-step solution

Time taken to reach maximum height is given by

t=usinθgt = \dfrac{usin\theta}{g}, where, uu is initial velocity.

Here, t1=t2{t}_{1} = {t}_{2}

∴u1sinθ1g=u2sinθ2g∴ \dfrac{{u}_{1}sin{\theta}_{1}}{g} = \dfrac{{u}_{2}sin{\theta}_{2}}{g}

⇒u1sin⁡30=u2sin⁡45⇒ {u}_{1}\sin 30 = {u}_{2}\sin 45

⇒u1u2=1212=21=2:1⇒ \dfrac{{u}_{1}}{{u}_{2}} = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\dfrac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{1} = \sqrt{2}: 1
