Show that projection angle `0_(o)` for a projectile launched from the origin is given by :
`0_(o) =tan^(-1) J [(4H_(m))/(R )]" where "H_(m)` =Maximum height, R = Range.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`H_m = (u^2 sin^(2) theta_0)/( 2g) , R= (u^(2))/( g) sin 2 theta_0 = (2u^(2)) /(g) sin theta _(0).cos theta_0`
`(H_m) /(R ) = (1)/(4) tan theta _(0) rArr theta_0 = tan ^(-1) ((4H_m)/(R ))`

For a projectile 'R' is range and 'H' is maximum height

A projectile is fired from a horizontal frictionless ground. Coefficient of restitution between the projectile and the ground is e. If T_(1), H_(1), R_(1), v_(1), T_(2), H_(2), R_(2), v_(2) , are time flight, maximum height, range, horizontal velocities in first two collisions, then match the following.

Two particles projected form the same point with same speed u at angles of projection alpha and beta strike the horizontal ground at the same point. If h_1 and h_2 are the maximum heights attained by the projectile, R is the range for both and t_1 and t_2 are their times of flights, respectively, then incorrect option is :
