Given:
The angle of projectiles are complementary angles.
Time of flight for 1st projection = T1
Time of flight for 2nd projection = T2
Maximum height of 1st projection = H1
Maximum height for 2nd projection = H2
To find:
The relation between R and H.
Solution:
Let the angle of projection be α, β
Since the angles are complementary angles:
α + β = 90°
So we can take one angle as α and the other as 90°-α
Since height of a projectile:
H = u² sin ²α/ 2g
H1 = u² sin²α/ 2g
H2 = u² sin²(90°-α)/2g = u²cos²α/ 2g
We know that range of a projectile:
R= u² sin2α/ g
Now multiplying the heights we get:
H1 * H2 = (u²(sinα cosα))²/ 4g²
Replacing the value of R by R, we get:
H1* H2 = R²/ 16
R² = 16 H1 H2
Therefore the square of the range of the projectile is equal to 16 time the product of maximum heights of the projectile.
