MCQ
A stone is projected at angle $30^{\circ}$ to the horizontal. The ratio of kinetic energy of the stone at point of projection to its kinetic energy at the highest point of flight will be :
  • A
    $1: 2$
  • B
    $1: 4$
  • C
    $4: 1$
  • $4: 3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$4: 3$
d
$\frac{ KE _{ POP }}{ KE _{\text {top }}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2} M ( u )^2}{\frac{1}{2} M \left( u \cos 30^{\circ}\right)^2}=\frac{4}{3}$
