C

$15$

D

$16$

Solution

$\mathrm{H}_{\max }=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 \mathrm{~g}}$

$\frac{\mathrm{H}_{1 \max }}{\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }}=\frac{\mathrm{u}_1^2}{\mathrm{u}_2^2}$

$\frac{64}{\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }}=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2}{(\mathrm{u} / 2)^2}$

$\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }=16 \mathrm{~m}$
