The ranges and heights for two projectiles projected with the same initial velocity at angles 42 and 48 with the horizontal are R1, R2 and H1, H2 respectively. Choose the correct option :

A. R1 > R2 and H1 = H2

B. R1 = R2 and H1 < H2

C. R1 < R2 and H1 < H2

D. R1 = R2 and H1 = H2

rrect Option is (B)

Here, two projectiles are projected at angles 42 and 48 with same initial velocity.

As we know the expression of range of projectile,

Range = u 2 sin 2 θ g

AT θ 1 = 42 ,

Range, R 1 = u 2 sin 2 ( 42 ) g = 0.99 u 2 g

At θ 2 = 48

Range, R 2 = u 2 sin 2 ( 48 ) g = 0.99 u 2 g

The range of the projectile is same for the two projectiles.

Therefore, R1 = R2

Now, as we know the expression of height of the projectile,

H max = u 2 sin θ 2 g

At 42 , H max = H 1 = u 2 sin 42 2 g = 0.669 u 2 2 g

At 48 , H max = H 2 = u 2 sin 48 2 g = 0.743 u 2 2 g

Higher the value of θ higher the value of maximum height. Therefore, H1 < H2.

A helicopter is flying horizontally with a speed 'v' at an altitude 'h' has to drop a food packet for a man on the ground. What is the distance of helicopter from the man when the food packet is dropped?

A. 2 g h v 2 + 1 h 2

B. 2 g h v 2 + h 2

C. 2 v 2 h g + h 2

D. 2 g h v 2 + h 2

rrect Option is (C)

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 31st August Morning Shift Physics - Motion Question 71 English Explanation
R = 2 h g . v

D = R 2 + h 2

= ( 2 h g . v ) 2 + h 2

D = 2 h v 2 g + h 2

Option (c) is correct.

   

33. (JEE Main 2021 (Online) 27th August Evening Shift )

A player kicks a football with an initial speed of 25 ms 1 at an angle of 45 from the ground. What are the maximum height and the time taken by the football to reach at the highest point during motion ? (Take g = 10 ms 2)

A. hmax = 10 m

T = 2.5 s

B. hmax = 15.625 m

T = 3.54 s

C. hmax = 15.625 m

T = 1.77 s

D. hmax = 3.54 m

T = 0.125 s

rrect Option is (C)

H = U 2 sin 2 θ 2 g

= ( 25 ) 2 . ( sin 45 ) 2 2 × 10

= 15.625 m

T = U sin θ g

= 25 × sin 45 10

= 2.5 × 0.7

= 1.77 s

   

34. (JEE Main 2021 (Online) 26th August Evening Shift )

A bomb is dropped by fighter plane flying horizontally. To an observer sitting in the plane, the trajectory of the bomb is a :

A. hyperbola

B. parabola in the direction of motion of plane

C. straight line vertically down the plane

D. parabola in a direction opposite to the motion of plane

rrect Option is (C)

Relative velocity of bomb w.r.t. observer in plane = 0.

Bomb will fall down vertically. So, it will move in straight line w.r.t. observer.

The trajectory of a projectile in a vertical plane is y = α x β x2, where α and β are constants and x & y are respectively the horizontal and vertical distances of the projectile from the point of projection. The angle of projection θ and the maximum height attained H are respectively given by :

A. tan 1 α , α 2 4 β

B. tan 1 α , 4 α 2 β

C. tan 1 ( β α ) , α 2 β

D. tan 1 β , α 2 2 β

rrect Option is (A)

y = α x β x2

comparing with trajectory equation

y = x tan θ 1 2 g x 2 u 2 cos 2 θ

tan θ = α θ = tan 1 α

β = 1 2 g u 2 cos 2 θ

u 2 = g 2 β cos 2 θ

Maximum height H :

H = u 2 sin 2 θ 2 g = g 2 β cos 2 θ sin 2 θ 2 g

H = tan 2 θ 4 β = α 2 4 β
