MCQ
The range of a projectile for a given initial velocity is maximum when the angle of projection is $45^{\circ}$. The range will be minimum, if the angle of projection is
  • $90^{\circ}$
  • B
    $180^{\circ}$
  • C
    $60^{\circ}$
  • D
    $75^{\circ}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$90^{\circ}$
Range $=\frac{ u ^2 \sin 2 \theta}{g}$, when $\theta=90^{\circ}, R=0$ i.e. the body will fall at the point of projection after completing one dimensional motion under gravity.
