The velocity at the maximum height of a projectile is `(sqrt(3))/(2)` times its initial velocity of projection (u). Its range on the horizontal plane is

A

`sqrt(3)(u^(2))/(2g)`

B

`(u^(2))/(2g)`

C

`(3u^(2))/(2g)`

D

`(3u^(2))/(g)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`u cos theta=sqrt(3)/(2)u rArr theta=30^(@)`
`rArr R=(u^(2) sin 2 xx30^(@))/(g)=(u^(2)sin 60^(@))/(g)=sqrt(3)(u^(2))/(2g)`
