A projectile thrown with a speed v at an angle `theta` has a range R on the surface of earth. For same v and `theta`, its range on the surface of moon will be

A

R/6

B

R

C

6R

D

36R

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
On earth , `R=u^2 sin 2theta//g`
On moon , g.=g/6
`R.=u^2 sin 2theta//g.=6u^2 sin 2theta//g`=6R
