MCQ
The maximum height reached by a projectile is $64 \mathrm{~m}$. If the initial velocity is halved, the new maximum height of the projectile is_________.$\mathrm{m}$.
  • A
    $11$
  • B
    $14$
  • C
    $15$
  • $16$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$16$
d
$\mathrm{H}_{\max }=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 \mathrm{~g}}$

$\frac{\mathrm{H}_{1 \max }}{\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }}=\frac{\mathrm{u}_1^2}{\mathrm{u}_2^2}$

$\frac{64}{\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }}=\frac{\mathrm{u}^2}{(\mathrm{u} / 2)^2}$

$\mathrm{H}_{2 \max }=16 \mathrm{~m}$
