A man can thrown a stone such that it acquires maximum horizontal range 80 m. The maximum height to which it will rise for the same projectile in metre is

A

10

B

20

C

40

D

50

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`theta = 45^(@), R_(max) = (u^(2))/(g) = 80`
`:. u^(2) = 800 ms^(-2)`
Now, `H = (u^(2)sin^(2)45^(@))/(2g) = ((800)(1//2))/(20) = 20m`
