If the equation of motion of a projectile is given by \(y=12 x-\frac{3}{4} x^2\) and its horizontal component of velocity is \(3 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\), then find its range. \(\left(g=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right)\)

  1. A \(12.4 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(21.6 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(30.6 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(36.0 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(21.6 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(u\) and \(\theta\) be the velocity of projection and angle of projection, respectively. Given that, horizontal component of velocity, \(u_x=u \cos \theta=3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) Equation of projectile motion is given by \(y=12 x-\frac{3}{4} x^2\) ...(i) We know,…
