    $45^\circ$
  • B
    $\theta = \tan^{-1}(0.25)$
  • C

Four objects $P, Q, R,$ and $S$ are projected with the same velocity at angles of $15^o, 30^o, 45^o,$ and $60^o$ respectively. Which of these will have the minimum range?

The horizontal range is four times the maximum height attained by a projectile. The angle of projection is .......... $^o$

$A$ body projected at a certain angle $(\neq 90^{\circ})$ from the ground crosses a point in its path at a time $t_1 = 2.3 \ s$ and from there it reaches the ground after a further time $t_2 = 5.7 \ s$. The maximum height reached by the body is (Take $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $m$)

$A$ bob of mass $0.1\; kg$ hung from the ceiling of a room by a string $2\; m$ long is set into oscillation. The speed of the bob at its mean position is $1\; m s^{-1}$. What is the trajectory of the bob if the string is cut when the bob is
$(a)$ at one of its extreme positions,
$(b)$ at its mean position.

For a projectile motion, the range $R$ is '$n$' times the maximum height $H$. So the angle of projection is
