Show that the projection angle `theta_o` for a projectile launched from the origin is given by
`theta_o =tan^(-1) ((4h_m)/R)`
Where the symbols have their usual meaning
उत्तर १
Maximum vertical height `h_m = (v_o^2 sin^2theta)/2g` ...(i)
Horiaontal range `R = (v_o^2 sin 2theta)/g` .. (ii)
Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get:
`h_m/R = (sin^2 theta)/(2sin 2theta) = (sin^2theta)/(4sin theta cos theta) = sin theta/(4cos theta)`
`=>h_m/R = (Tan theta)/4`
`=> theta = Tan^(-1) ((4h_m)/R)`
उत्तर २
Since h_"max" = `(u^2sin^2theta)"/2g"`
and `R = (u^2sin 2theta)/g`
`=> h_"max"/R = (u^2sin^2theta"/2g")/(u^2sin 2theta"/g") = (tan theta)/4`
`=> (tan theta)/4 = h_"max"/R`
or `tan theta = (4h_"max")/R`
or `theta = tan^(-1)(4h_"max")/R`

In dealing with motion of projectile in air, we ignore effect of air resistance on motion. This gives trajectory as a parabola as you have studied. What would the trajectory look like if air resistance is included? Sketch such a trajectory and explain why you have drawn it that way.
A cricket fielder can throw the cricket ball with a speed vo. If he throws the ball while running with speed u at an angle θ to the horizontal, find
- the effective angle to the horizontal at which the ball is projected in air as seen by a spectator.
- what will be time of flight?
- what is the distance (horizontal range) from the point of projection at which the ball will land?
- find θ at which he should throw the ball that would maximise the horizontal range as found in (iii).
- how does θ for maximum range change if u > vo, u = vo, u < vo?
- how does θ in (v) compare with that for u = 0 (i.e.45)?
