3-2.Motion in Plane
medium
The maximum horizontal range of a projectile is $160\, m$. When the projectile is thrown with the same speed at an elevation of $30^o$ from the horizontal, it will reach to the maximum height of ......... $m$
A
$20$
B
$40$
C
$80 $
D
$160$
Solution
$\mathrm{R}=\frac{\mathrm{u}^{2} \sin 2 \theta}{\mathrm{g}}$ so that $\mathrm{R}_{\max }=\frac{\mathrm{u}^{2}}{\mathrm{g}}=160 \mathrm{m}$
$\mathrm{H}_{\max }=\frac{\mathrm{u}^{2} \sin ^{2} \theta}{2 \mathrm{g}}$
$=\frac{1}{2} \times 160 \times \sin ^{2} 30^{\circ}=20$
