  1. A missile is fired for maximum range with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. If g = 10 m/s2 , the range of the missile is​​​
    1. ​40 m
    2. 50 m ​
    3. 60 m
    4. 20 m
Correct Option: A

For maximum range, the angle of projection, θ = 45°

∴ R =
u2 sin 2θ
g

=
(20)2 sin (2 × 45°)
10

=
400 × 1
= 40 m
10
