Question

Find the angle of projection of a projectile for which the horizontal range and maximum height are equal.
A. `tan^-1(1)`
B. `tan^-1(2)`
C. `tan^-1(3)`
D. `tan^-1(4)`

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
(d) We find that `H = R` or `(u^2 sin^2 theta)/(2 g) = (u^2 2 sin theta cos theta)/(g)`
or `tan theta = 4 or theta = tan^-1 (4)`.
