3-2.Motion in Plane
easy

At what angle of elevation, should a projectile be projected with velocity $20 \,ms ^{-1}$, so as to reach a maximum height of $10 \,m$ ?

A

$0$

B

$90$

C

$45$

D

$60$

Solution

(c)

$H =\frac{ u ^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 g }$

$10=\frac{20 \times 20 \sin ^2 \theta}{20}$

$\sin ^2 \theta=\frac{1}{2}$

$\sin \theta=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\theta=45^{\circ}$
