A ball whose kinetic energy is `E` , is projected at an angle of `45(@)` to the horizontal . The kinetic energy of the ball at the highest point of its flight will be

A

E

B

`(E)/sqrt(2)`

C

`(E)/(2)`

D

zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`E=(1)/(2)mu^(2)`
and `E'=(1)/(2)mu^(2)cos^(2)45^(@)=Exx(1)/(2)=(E)/(2)`
