A projectile is thrown with an initial velocity `(ahati+bhati)m s^(-1)`.where `hati` and `hatj` are the unit vectors along horizontal and vertical directions respectively If the range of projectile is twice the maximum height reached by it, then

A

a=2b

B

b=a

C

b=2a

D

b=4a

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`vecv=ahati+6hatjrArru cos theta=a` and `usin theta=b`
`tantheta=(b)/(a)` also `tan theta=(4)/(n)=(4)/(2)=2`
`therefore (b)/(a)=2 rArr b=2a`
