A projectile is fired with a speed u at ...

A projectile is fired with a speed u at an angle `theta` above the horizontal field. The coefficient of restitution between the projectile and field is e. Find the position from the starting point when the projectile will land at its second collision

A

`(e^(2)u^(2)sin 2theta)/g`

B

`((1-e^(2))u^(2)sin 2theta)/g`

C

`((1-e)u^(2)sinthetacostheta)/g`

D

`((1+e)u^(2)sin 2theta)/g`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Vertical velocity after collision =`"e u" sintheta`
`"So " x=R+R'=("u"^(2)sin2theta)/g+(2ucostheta("eu "sin theta))/g`
`=("u"^(2)sin2theta)/(g)(1+e)`
