A projectile thrown with velocity v making angle `theta` with vertical gains maximum height H in the time for which the projectile remains in air, the time period is

A

`sqrt(H cos theta//g)`

B

`sqrt(2H cos theta//g)`

C

`sqrt(4H//g)`

D

`sqrt(8H//g)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Max. height =`H=(v^2 sin^2 (90-theta))/(2g)` …(i)
Time of flight , `T=(2v sin (90-theta))/g`…(ii)
From (i), `(v cos theta)/g=sqrt((2H)/g)`, From (ii),
`T=2sqrt((2H)/g) =sqrt((8H)/g)`

A projectile is projected with velocity u making angle theta with horizontal direction, find : time of flight.

A projectile is thrown with velocity u making an angle theta with the horizontal. Its time of flight on the horizontal ground is 4 second. The projectile is moving at angle of 45^(@) with the horizontal just one second after the projection. Hence the angle theta is (take g=10m//s^(2) )

A projectile is thrown at angle beta with vertical.It reaches a maximum height H .The time taken to reach the hightest point of its path is

A cannon fires its projectile with such an initial velocity and angle of projection that its range is R and the maximum height to which the projectile rises is H. Find the maximum range that can be obtained with the same initial velocity.

A cannon fires its projectile with such an initial velocity and angle of projection that its range is R and the maximum height to which the projectile rises is H.Find the maximum range that can be obtained with the same initial velocity.

For a projectile thrown with a velocity v, the horizontal range is (sqrt(3)v^2)/(2g) . The vertical range is v^2/(8g) . The angle which the projectile makes with the horizontal initially is:

In a projectile motion, velocity at maximum height is

A projectile is thrown with velocity v making an angle theta with the horizontal. It just crosses the top of two poles,each of height h, after 1 seconds 3 second respectively. The time of flight of the projectile is
