MCQ
The projectile attains maximum height when it is projected at an angle of
- A$30^{\circ}$
- B$45^{\circ}$
- ✓$90^{\circ}$
- D$120^{\circ}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$90^{\circ}$
(C)
It is to be noted that, as range of projectile varies with $\sin (2 \theta)$, its maximum value IS obtained at $\theta=45^{\circ}$. However, the maximum height of projectile varies with $\sin ^2 \theta$, its maximum value is obtained at $\theta=90^{\circ}$.
