Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 8

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The maximum horizontal range of a projectile is given by \(R_{\text{max}} = \dfrac{u^2}{g}\). Given \(R_{\text{max}} = 6.4\) m and \(g = 10\) m/s\(^2\). Substituting the values: \(6.4 = \dfrac{u^2}{10}\) \(u^2 = 64\) \(u = 8\) m/s. Answer: \(8\)
