Question:

The horizontal range and the maximum height of a projectile are equal. The angle of projection of the projectile is :

Options:

θ = tan-1 (2)

θ = 45°

θ = tan-1 (\(\frac{1}{4}\))

θ = tan-1 (4)

Correct Answer:

θ = tan-1 (4)

Explanation:

R = Hmax

⇒ $\frac{2 u^2 Sin \theta Cos \theta}{g} = \frac{u^2 Sin^2 \theta}{2g}$

tan θ = 4 ⇒ \(\theta\) =tan-1(4)
