Question

Two projectiles are projected with he same velocity.if one is projected at an angle of 30degrees and the other at 60degrees,to the horizontal,then the ratio of maximum heights reached is

Answer 1

Answer:

The maximum height of a projectile is given by, Where, gamma is the angle of projection, u is the initial velocity and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Considering one angle at 30° and other as 60°, the ratio will be, Hence, the ratio of the maximum heights projectiles lauched from angles 30° and 60° is 1/3.
