    If maximum height and range of a projectile are same, what is the angle of projection?

    A) \[30{}^\circ \]                                   

    B)        \[76{}^\circ \]

    C)        \[50{}^\circ \]                                   

    D)        \[90{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    or projectiles                 \[{{H}_{\max }}=\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\alpha }{2\,\,g}\]                      \[R=\frac{{{u}^{2}}\sin 2\alpha }{g}\] Given\[{{H}_{\max }}=R\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{u}^{2}}{{\sin }^{2}}\alpha }{2\,\,g}=\frac{{{u}^{2}}\sin 2\,\,\alpha }{g}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\sin }^{2}}\alpha =4\sin \alpha \cos \alpha \] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\tan \alpha =4\Rightarrow \alpha ={{\tan }^{-1}}4\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\alpha ={{76}^{o}}\]
