JEE MainPhysicsCircular MotionMCQ+4 / −1
A particle moving in a circle of radius with uniform speed takes time to complete one revolution. If this particle is projected with the same speed at an angle to the horizontal, the maximum height attained by it is equal to . The angle of projection is then given by :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
- Speed in uniform circular motion
If a particle moves in a circle of radius and completes one revolution in time , then its speed is
- Projectile motion with the same speed
The particle is now projected with speed at an angle to the horizontal.
Maximum height of a projectile is
Given that the maximum height is , so
- Substitute
Simplify:
Divide by :
Hence,
So,
Therefore,
- Match with options
This corresponds to Option A:
- Verification with stored answer
Stored correct answer: A
Derived answer: A
They match.
