A bullet is fired from horizontal ground...

A bullet is fired from horizontal ground at some angle passes through the point, where `R` is the range of the bullet. Assume point of the fire to be origin and the bullet moves in x-y plane with x-axis horizontal and y-axis vertically upwards. Then angle of projection is

A

`30^@`

B

`37^@`

C

`53^@`

D

none

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`y=xtantheta(1-(x)/(R ))`
`implies(R )/(4)=(3R)/(4)=tantheta(1-3R)/(4R))`
`implies1=3tantheta((1)/(4))`
`impliestantheta=(3)/(4)impliestheta=53^@`
