JEE Advanced · Physics · 4. Motion in 2D

A projectile is fired from horizontal ground with speed v and projection angle θ. When the acceleration due to gravity is g, the range of the projectile is d. If at the highest point in its trajectory, the projectile enters a different region where the effective acceleration due to gravity is g'=g0.81, then the new range is d'=nd. The value of n is

  1. A 0.95
  2. B 0.97
  3. C 0.98
  4. D 0.99
Verified Solution
