A stone is projected at an angle `alpha` to the horizontal from the top of a tower of height 3h If the stone reaches a maximum height h above the tower, then calculate the distance from the foot of the tower where particle strikes the foot of the where particle strikes the ground.

A

`6h tan alpha`

B

`6h cot alpha`

C

`h tan alpha`

D

`h cot alpha`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(u^(2) sin^(2) alpha)/(2g) = h`
`s = ut + (1)/(2) at^(2)`
`- 3h = sqrt(2 gh) T + (1)/(2) (-g) T^(2)`
Range `= (u cos alpha) T`
