The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the time at which the velocities of two particles projected at angles of \(30^\circ\) and \(60^\circ\) with the horizontal become parallel, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the velocity components of each particle For both particles, the initial speed is \(V_0\). **Particle 1 (projected at \(30^\circ\)):** - Horizontal component: \[ V_{1x} = V_0 \cos(30^\circ) = V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] - Vertical component: \[ V_{1y} = V_0 \sin(30^\circ) = V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \] **Particle 2 (projected at \(60^\circ\)):** - Horizontal component: \[ V_{2x} = V_0 \cos(60^\circ) = V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \] - Vertical component: \[ V_{2y} = V_0 \sin(60^\circ) = V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] ### Step 2: Write the velocity equations as functions of time The velocities of the particles at time \(t\) can be expressed as: **For Particle 1:** \[ \vec{V_1}(t) = \left(V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \hat{i} + \left(V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2} - gt\right) \hat{j} \] **For Particle 2:** \[ \vec{V_2}(t) = \left(V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2}\right) \hat{i} + \left(V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - gt\right) \hat{j} \] ### Step 3: Set the conditions for parallel velocities The velocities will be parallel when the ratio of their components is equal: \[ \frac{V_{1x}}{V_{2x}} = \frac{V_{1y}}{V_{2y}} \] Substituting the components: \[ \frac{V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2}} = \frac{V_0 \cdot \frac{1}{2} - gt}{V_0 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - gt} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the equation Cancel \(V_0\) from both sides: \[ \frac{\sqrt{3}}{1} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} - gt}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - gt} \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ \sqrt{3} \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - gt\right) = \frac{1}{2} - gt \] ### Step 5: Expand and collect terms Expanding the left side: \[ \frac{3}{2} - \sqrt{3}gt = \frac{1}{2} - gt \] Rearranging gives: \[ \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2} = gt - \sqrt{3}gt \] \[ 1 = gt(1 - \sqrt{3}) \] ### Step 6: Solve for time \(t\) \[ t = \frac{1}{g(1 - \sqrt{3})} \] ### Step 7: Rationalize the denominator To rationalize: \[ t = \frac{1(1 + \sqrt{3})}{g(1 - \sqrt{3})(1 + \sqrt{3})} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{3}}{g(1 - 3)} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{3}}{-2g} \] Thus, \[ t = \frac{(1 + \sqrt{3})}{2g} \] ### Final Answer The time at which the velocities of the two particles become parallel is: \[ t = \frac{(1 + \sqrt{3}) V_0}{2g} \]
