The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the projectile motion of two projectiles `A` and `B` launched at angles of `30°` and `60°` respectively, with the same initial speed `u`. We will calculate the total time of flight (`T`), maximum height (`H`), and horizontal range (`R`) for both projectiles and determine which statement is not valid. ### Step 1: Calculate Time of Flight for Projectile A (30°) The formula for the time of flight \( T \) for a projectile is given by: \[ T = \frac{2u \sin \theta}{g} \] For projectile A: \[ T_A = \frac{2u \sin 30°}{g} = \frac{2u \cdot \frac{1}{2}}{g} = \frac{u}{g} \] ### Step 2: Calculate Time of Flight for Projectile B (60°) For projectile B: \[ T_B = \frac{2u \sin 60°}{g} = \frac{2u \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{g} = \frac{\sqrt{3}u}{g} \] ### Step 3: Calculate Maximum Height for Projectile A (30°) The formula for maximum height \( H \) is given by: \[ H = \frac{u^2 \sin^2 \theta}{2g} \] For projectile A: \[ H_A = \frac{u^2 \sin^2 30°}{2g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}{2g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \frac{1}{4}}{2g} = \frac{u^2}{8g} \] ### Step 4: Calculate Maximum Height for Projectile B (60°) For projectile B: \[ H_B = \frac{u^2 \sin^2 60°}{2g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^2}{2g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \frac{3}{4}}{2g} = \frac{3u^2}{8g} \] ### Step 5: Calculate Horizontal Range for Projectile A (30°) The formula for horizontal range \( R \) is given by: \[ R = \frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} \] For projectile A: \[ R_A = \frac{u^2 \sin 60°}{g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{g} = \frac{\sqrt{3}u^2}{2g} \] ### Step 6: Calculate Horizontal Range for Projectile B (60°) For projectile B: \[ R_B = \frac{u^2 \sin 120°}{g} = \frac{u^2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{g} = \frac{\sqrt{3}u^2}{2g} \] ### Summary of Results - Time of Flight: - \( T_A = \frac{u}{g} \) - \( T_B = \frac{\sqrt{3}u}{g} \) - Maximum Height: - \( H_A = \frac{u^2}{8g} \) - \( H_B = \frac{3u^2}{8g} \) - Horizontal Range: - \( R_A = \frac{\sqrt{3}u^2}{2g} \) - \( R_B = \frac{\sqrt{3}u^2}{2g} \) ### Validity Check of Statements 1. **\( H_A = 3H_B \)**: This is incorrect because \( H_A = \frac{u^2}{8g} \) and \( H_B = \frac{3u^2}{8g} \) implies \( H_A \neq 3H_B \). 2. **\( T_B = \sqrt{3} T_A \)**: This is correct because \( T_B = \frac{\sqrt{3}u}{g} \) and \( T_A = \frac{u}{g} \). 3. **\( R_A = R_B \)**: This is correct since both ranges are equal. 4. **\( H_A - 3H_B = 0 \)**: This is incorrect since \( H_A - 3H_B \) does not equal zero. ### Conclusion The statement that is **not valid** is **\( H_A = 3H_B \)**.
