Question

Four bodies A, B, C and D are projected with equal velocities having angles of projection $15^{o},30^{o},45^{o}$and $60^{o}$with the horizontal respectively. The body having the shortest range is

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

A

Answer 2

Range, $R = \frac{u^{2}\sin 2\theta}{g}$

For a given initial velocity

$R \propto \sin 2\theta$
