MCQ
Two particles are projected from the same point with the same speed $u$ such that they have the same range $R$, but different maximum heights, $h_1$ and $h_2$. Which of the following is correct ?
  • A
    $R^2 = 4 h_1h_2$
  • B
    $R^2 = 2 h_1h_2$
  • $R^2 = 16 h_1h_2$
  • D
    $R^2 = h_1h_2$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$R^2 = 16 h_1h_2$

$\begin{array}{l} For\,same\,range\,angle\,of\,projection\,will\\ be\,\theta \,will\,be\,\theta \,\& \,90 - \theta \\ R\,\, = \,\frac{{{u^2}2\sin \theta \cos \theta }}{g}\\ {h_1} = \frac{{{u^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta }}{g}\\ {h_2} = \frac{{{u^2}\sin {\,^2}\left( {90 - \theta } \right)}}{g}\\ \frac{{{R^2}}}{{{h_1}{h_2}}} = 16 \end{array}$

A ball is thrown from the location $\left(x_0, y_0\right)=(0,0)$ of a horizontal playground with an initial speed $v_0$ at an angle $\theta_0$ from the $+x$-direction. The ball is to be hit by a stone, which is thrown at the same time from the location $\left(x_1, y_1\right)=(L, 0)$. The stone is thrown at an angle $\left(180-\theta_1\right)$ from the $+x$-direction with a suitable initial speed. For a fixed $v_0$, when $\left(\theta_0, \theta_1\right)=\left(45^{\circ}, 45^{\circ}\right)$, the stone hits the ball after time $T_1$, and when $\left(\theta_0, \theta_1\right)=\left(60^{\circ}, 30^{\circ}\right)$, it hits the ball after time $T_2$.
