    A large number of bullets are fired in all directions with same speed v. What is the maximum area on the ground on which these bullets will spread

    A)  \[\pi \frac{{{V}^{2}}}{g}\]

    B)  \[\pi \frac{{{V}^{2}}}{{{g}^{2}}}\]

    C)  \[{{\pi }^{2}}\frac{{{V}^{4}}}{{{g}^{2}}}\]

    D)  \[{{\pi }^{2}}\frac{{{V}^{2}}}{{{g}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Area in which bullet will spread\[=\pi {{r}^{2}}\] For maximum area, \[r={{R}_{\max }}=\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{g\,\tan 45{}^\circ }\] \[r=\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{g}\] Maximum area\[=\pi R_{\max }^{2}=\pi \left( \frac{{{v}^{2}}}{g} \right)=\frac{\pi {{v}^{4}}}{{{g}^{2}}}\]
