What will be the ratio of time of flights of two projectiles fired at angles of `theta and 90^(@)- theta` ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the ratio of the time of flight of two projectiles fired at angles \( \theta \) and \( 90^\circ - \theta \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for time of flight The time of flight \( T \) for a projectile is given by the formula: \[ T = \frac{2u \sin \theta}{g} \] where \( u \) is the initial velocity, \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity, and \( \theta \) is the angle of projection. ...
