The speed at the maximum height of a projectile is (1)/(3) of its initial speed u. If its range on the horizontal plane is (n sqrt(2)u^(2))/(9g) then value of n is

The speed at the maximum height of a projectile is sqrt(3)/(2) times of its initial speed 'u' of projection Its range on the horizontal plane:-

The horizontal range and the maximum height of a projectile are equal. The angle of projection of the projectile is

What will be the effect on maximum height of a projectile when its angle of projection is changed from 30^(@) to 60^(@) , without changing its initial velocity of projection ?

The maximum horizontal range of projectile on the earth is R . Then for the same velocity of projection, its maximum range on another planet is (5R)/4 . Then, ratio of acceleration due to gravity on that planet and on the earth is

" The velocity of a projectile at point of projection is " 5hat i+4hat j " its velocity at the point of return to the same horizontal plane is "

Assertion: For projection angle tan^(-1)(4) , the horizontal range and the maximum height of a projectile are equal. Reason: The maximum range of projectile is directely proportional to square of velocity and inversely proportional to acceleration due to gravity.

The horizontal range is equal to two times maximum height of a projectile. The angle of projection ofthe projectile is:

If R and H represent horizontal range and maximum height of the projectile, then the angle of projection with the horizontal is
