The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of a body projected from the ground with a velocity \( \mathbf{v} = (3 \hat{i} + 10 \hat{j}) \, \text{m/s} \), we need to find the maximum height attained and the range of the body. Given that \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the components of the initial velocity The initial velocity can be broken down into its horizontal and vertical components: - \( u_x = 3 \, \text{m/s} \) (horizontal component) - \( u_y = 10 \, \text{m/s} \) (vertical component) ### Step 2: Calculate the maximum height The formula for the maximum height \( H \) attained by a projectile is given by: \[ H = \frac{u_y^2}{2g} \] Substituting the values: \[ H = \frac{(10)^2}{2 \times 10} = \frac{100}{20} = 5 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the range The formula for the range \( R \) of a projectile is given by: \[ R = \frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} \] To find \( \sin 2\theta \), we need to express \( u \) and \( \theta \) in terms of \( u_x \) and \( u_y \): - The magnitude of the initial velocity \( u \) is: \[ u = \sqrt{u_x^2 + u_y^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 10^2} = \sqrt{9 + 100} = \sqrt{109} \, \text{m/s} \] - The angle \( \theta \) can be found using: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{u_y}{u_x} = \frac{10}{3} \] Thus, \( \sin 2\theta = 2 \sin \theta \cos \theta \). Using the relationships: \[ \sin \theta = \frac{u_y}{u} = \frac{10}{\sqrt{109}}, \quad \cos \theta = \frac{u_x}{u} = \frac{3}{\sqrt{109}} \] We can find \( \sin 2\theta \): \[ \sin 2\theta = 2 \cdot \frac{10}{\sqrt{109}} \cdot \frac{3}{\sqrt{109}} = \frac{60}{109} \] Now substituting \( \sin 2\theta \) into the range formula: \[ R = \frac{u^2 \cdot \frac{60}{109}}{g} = \frac{109 \cdot \frac{60}{109}}{10} = \frac{60}{10} = 6 \, \text{m} \] ### Final Results - Maximum Height \( H = 5 \, \text{m} \) - Range \( R = 6 \, \text{m} \) ### Summary The maximum height attained by the body is \( 5 \, \text{m} \) and the range is \( 6 \, \text{m} \). ---
