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

A

`90^(@)`

B

zero

C

`60^(@)`

D

`30^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Compare the given equation with
`y = x tan theta - (gx^(2))/(2u^(2) cos^(2) theta) rArr tan theta = sqrt(3) rArr theta = 60^(@)`
