JEE Main & Advanced Physics Two Dimensional Motion Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Motion in a Plane

  • question_answer
    A projectile is fired with a velocity v at right angle to the slope which is inclined at an angle \[\theta \] with the horizontal. The range of the projectile along the inclined plane is:

    A) \[\frac{2{{\text{v}}^{\text{2}}}\tan \theta }{\text{g}}\]             

    B)        \[\frac{{{\text{v}}^{\text{2}}}\sec \theta }{\text{g}}\]  

    C) \[\frac{2{{\text{v}}^{\text{2}}}\tan \theta \sec \theta }{\text{g}}\] 

    D)        \[\frac{{{\text{v}}^{\text{2}}}sin\theta }{\text{g}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] If t is the time of flight, then \[0=vt-\frac{1}{2}\left( g\cos \theta  \right){{t}^{2}}\Rightarrow t=\frac{2v}{g}g\cos \theta .\] \[R=0+\frac{1}{2}\left( g\sin \theta  \right){{t}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}g\sin \theta {{\left( \frac{2v}{g\cos \theta } \right)}^{2}}\]\[=\frac{2{{v}^{2}}}{g}\tan \theta \,\sec \theta \]
