The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states that if the range of a projectile is made n times, then its time of flight also becomes n times. - **Formula for Range (R)**: \[ R = \frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} \] - **Formula for Time of Flight (T)**: \[ T = \frac{2u \sin \theta}{g} \] ### Step 2: Analyzing the Change in Range If the range is increased by n times, we can express this as: \[ R' = nR = n \left(\frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}\right) \] ### Step 3: Finding New Initial Velocity Let the new initial velocity be \( u' \). Then we can write: \[ R' = \frac{(u')^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} \] Setting the two expressions for \( R' \) equal gives: \[ n \left(\frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}\right) = \frac{(u')^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} \] This simplifies to: \[ n u^2 = (u')^2 \] Taking the square root of both sides, we find: \[ u' = \sqrt{n} u \] ### Step 4: Finding New Time of Flight Now, we can find the new time of flight \( T' \) using the new initial velocity \( u' \): \[ T' = \frac{2u' \sin \theta}{g} = \frac{2(\sqrt{n} u) \sin \theta}{g} = \sqrt{n} \left(\frac{2u \sin \theta}{g}\right) = \sqrt{n} T \] ### Step 5: Conclusion From the calculations, we see that: - The time of flight \( T' \) becomes \( \sqrt{n} T \), not \( n T \). Therefore, the assertion is incorrect. ### Step 6: Analyzing the Reason The reason states that the range of a projectile does not depend on the initial velocity of a body. However, from the formula for range, we see that it does depend on the initial velocity \( u \). Therefore, the reason is also incorrect. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are false.

To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states that if the range of a projectile is made n times, then its time of flight also becomes n times. - **Formula for Range (R)**: \[ R = \frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} ...
