Question
Two projectiles A and B are projected with angle of projection 15° for the projectile A and 45° for the projectile B. If RA and RB be the horizontal range for the two projectiles, then
Options
RA < RB
RA > RB
RA = RB
the information is insufficient to decide the relation of RA with RB.
Solution
the information is insufficient to decide the relation of RA with RB.
Horizontal range for the projectile, \[R = \frac{u^2 \sin\left( 2\alpha \right)}{g}\] Information of the initial velocity is not given in the question.
