    The speed of a projectile at its maximum height is \[\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\] times its initial speed. If the range of the projectile is 'P' times the maximum height attained by it. P is-

    A) \[\frac{4}{3}\]              

    B)        \[2\sqrt{3}\]   

    C)  \[4\sqrt{3}\]     

    D)         \[\frac{3}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given, \[u\cos \theta =\frac{\sqrt{3}u}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\cos \theta =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\Rightarrow \theta =30{}^\circ \] Range (R) \[\frac{{{u}^{2}}\sin 2\theta }{g}=\frac{{{u}^{2}}\sin 60{}^\circ }{g}=\frac{\sqrt{3}{{u}^{2}}}{2g}\] Maximum height \[=\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }{2g}=\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}30{}^\circ }{2g}=\frac{{{u}^{2}}}{8g}\] Now, Range \[=P\times H\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\frac{\sqrt{3}{{u}^{2}}}{2g}=P\times \frac{{{u}^{2}}}{8g}\Rightarrow P=4\sqrt{3}\]
