A water fountain on the ground sprinkles water all around it. If the speed of water coming out of the fountain is $v$, the total area around the fountain that gets wet is :

A$\frac{{\pi {v^2}}}{g}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;$
B$\;\frac{{\pi {v^2}}}{{{g^2}}}$
C$\;\frac{{{\pi ^2}{v^2}}}{{{g^2}}}$
D$\;\frac{{\pi {v^4}}}{{{g^2}}}$
(AIEEE-2011)

Solution

$\begin{array}{l}
Total\,area\,around\,fountain\\
A = \pi R_{\max }^2 = \pi \frac{{{v^4}}}{{{g^2}}}\\
\left[ {\,{R_{\max }} = \frac{{{v^2}\sin 2\theta }}{g} = \frac{{{v^2}\sin {{90}^ \circ }}}{g} = \frac{{{v^2}}}{g}} \right]
\end{array}$
