MCQ
The angle of projection for a projectile to have same horizontal range and maximum height is :
  • A
    $\tan ^{-1}(2)$
  • $\tan ^{-1}(4)$
  • C
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)$
  • D
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\tan ^{-1}(4)$
b
$\frac{u^2 \sin 2 \theta}{g}=\frac{u^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 g}$

$4 \sin \theta \cos \theta=\sin ^2 \theta$

$4=\tan \theta$

A bead of mass $m$ can slide on a frictionless fixed ring of very large radius $r$. With the help of two identical strings of force constant $k,$ it is connected to two diametrically opposite nails $A$ and $B$ each of which are at distance $0.5r$ from the centre $O$ of the ring. The relaxed length of each string is negligible as compared to the radius of the ring. The bead is given a small velocity. What can you predict for further motion of the bead before any of the strings strikes a nail?
