A ball is projected to attain the maximum range. If the height attained is H, the range is

A

H

B

2H

C

4H

D

H/2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Maximum range for a given velocity is attained at `theta=45^(@)`
`R_("max")=(u^(2)sin2theta)/(g)rArrR_("max")=(u^(2)sin90^(@))/(g)=(u^(2))/(g)`
`therefore R_("max")=4.H_("max")`
