The equation of trajectory of an oblique projectile `y = sqrt(3) x - (g x^(2))/(2)`. The angle of projection is

A

`30^(@)`

B

`45^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`15^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`y = sqrt(3) x - (g x^(2))/(2)`
The equation of trajectory of projectile
`y = x tan theta - (g x^(2))/(2u^(2) cos^(2) theta)`
Comparing coefficient of `x`
`tan theta = sqrt(3) rArr theta = 60^(@)`
