MCQ

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion A :Two identical balls $A$ and $B$ thrown with same velocity '$u$ ' at two different angles with horizontal attained the same range $R$. If $A$ and $B$ reached the maximum height $h_{1}$ and $h_{2}$ respectively, then $R =4 \sqrt{ h _{1} h _{2}}$

Reason R: Product of said heights.

$h _{1} h _{2}=\left(\frac{u^{2} \sin ^{2} \theta}{2 g }\right) \cdot\left(\frac{u^{2} \cos ^{2} \theta}{2 g }\right)$

Choose the $CORRECT$ answer

✓
Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
B
Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is NOT the correct explanation of $A$.
C
A is true but $R$ is false
D
A is false but $R$ is true

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.

a
For same range $\theta_{1}+\theta_{2}=90^{\circ}$

$h _{1} h _{2}=\frac{ u ^{2} \sin ^{2} \theta_{1}}{2 g } \times \frac{ u ^{2} \sin ^{2} \theta_{2}}{2 g }$

$\theta_{2}=90-\theta_{1}$

$h _{1} h _{2}=\frac{ u ^{2} \sin ^{2} \theta_{1}}{2 g } \cdot \frac{ u ^{2} \cos ^{2} \theta_{1}}{2 g }$

$=\left[\frac{ u ^{2} \sin \theta_{1} \cos \theta_{1}}{2 g }\right]^{2}$

$=\left[\frac{ u ^{2} \sin \theta_{1} \cos \theta_{1}}{2 g } \times \frac{2}{2}\right]^{2}=\frac{ R ^{2}}{16}$

$R =4 \sqrt{ h _{1} h _{2}}$

So $R$ is correct explanation of $A$
