A ball is projecte with a velocity `20 ms^-1` at an angle to the horizontal. In order to have the maximum range. Its velocity at the highest position must be

A

`10 ms^-1`

B

`14ms^-1`

C

`18ms^-1`

D

`16ms^-1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

At `45^@` , range is maximum. At highest point, it has only horizontal component of velocity or `20cos45^@ = 14 m//s` .
