The horizontal range of a projectile is 434\sqrt{3} times its maximum height. Its angle of projection will be:

A

4545^{\circ}

B

6060^{\circ}

C

9090^{\circ}

D

3030^{\circ}

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Formulas: Maximum Height (HH) is given by H=v02sin2θ2gH = \frac{v_0^2 \sin^2 \theta}{2g} . Horizontal Range (RR) is given by R=v02sin2θg=2v02sinθcosθgR = \frac{v_0^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} = \frac{2v_0^2 \sin \theta \cos \theta}{g} .
  2. Given Condition: R=43HR = 4\sqrt{3} H.
  3. Substitution: 2v02sinθcosθg=43(v02sin2θ2g)\frac{2v_0^2 \sin \theta \cos \theta}{g} = 4\sqrt{3} \left( \frac{v_0^2 \sin^2 \theta}{2g} \right)
  4. Simplification: Cancel common terms (v02v_0^2, gg, and one sinθ\sin \theta): 2cosθ=43(sinθ2)2 \cos \theta = 4\sqrt{3} \left( \frac{\sin \theta}{2} \right) 2cosθ=23sinθ2 \cos \theta = 2\sqrt{3} \sin \theta sinθcosθ=13\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} tanθ=13\tan \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
  5. Calculate Angle: θ=30\theta = 30^{\circ}.
