JEE MainPhysicsCircular MotionMCQ+4 / −1
A particle moving in a circle of radius R\mathrm{R}R with uniform speed takes time T\mathrm{T}T to complete one revolution. If this particle is projected with the same speed at an angle θ\thetaθ to the horizontal, the maximum height attained by it is equal to 4R4 R4R. The angle of projection θ\thetaθ is then given by :

Correct answer: A

  1. Speed in uniform circular motion

If a particle moves in a circle of radius RRR and completes one revolution in time TTT, then its speed is

v=2πRT.v = \frac{2\pi R}{T}.v=T2πR​.

  1. Projectile motion with the same speed

The particle is now projected with speed vvv at an angle θ\thetaθ to the horizontal.

Maximum height of a projectile is

H=v2sin⁡2θ2g.H = \frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}.H=2gv2sin2θ​.

Given that the maximum height is 4R4R4R, so

v2sin⁡2θ2g=4R.\frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g} = 4R.2gv2sin2θ​=4R.

  1. Substitute v=2πRTv = \dfrac{2\pi R}{T}v=T2πR​

(2πRT)2sin⁡2θ2g=4R.\frac{\left(\dfrac{2\pi R}{T}\right)^2 \sin^2\theta}{2g} = 4R.2g(T2πR​)2sin2θ​=4R.

Simplify:

4π2R2T2⋅sin⁡2θ2g=4R\frac{4\pi^2 R^2}{T^2}\cdot \frac{\sin^2\theta}{2g} = 4RT24π2R2​⋅2gsin2θ​=4R

2π2R2gT2sin⁡2θ=4R.\frac{2\pi^2 R^2}{gT^2}\sin^2\theta = 4R.gT22π2R2​sin2θ=4R.

Divide by RRR:

2π2RgT2sin⁡2θ=4.\frac{2\pi^2 R}{gT^2}\sin^2\theta = 4.gT22π2R​sin2θ=4.

Hence,

sin⁡2θ=4gT22π2R=2gT2π2R.\sin^2\theta = \frac{4gT^2}{2\pi^2 R} = \frac{2gT^2}{\pi^2 R}.sin2θ=2π2R4gT2​=π2R2gT2​.

So,

sin⁡θ=(2gT2π2R)1/2.\sin\theta = \left(\frac{2gT^2}{\pi^2 R}\right)^{1/2}.sinθ=(π2R2gT2​)1/2.

Therefore,

θ=sin⁡−1(2gT2π2R)1/2.\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{2gT^2}{\pi^2 R}\right)^{1/2}.θ=sin−1(π2R2gT2​)1/2.

  1. Match with options

This corresponds to Option A:

sin⁡−1[2gT2π2R]12.\sin ^{-1}\left[\frac{2 gT^2}{\pi^2 R}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}.sin−1[π2R2gT2​]21​.

  1. Verification with stored answer

Stored correct answer: A

Derived answer: A
