JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 3.2 motion in plane

The initial speed of a projectile fired from ground is \(u\). At the highest point during its motion, the speed of projectile is \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} u\). The time of flight of the projectile is:

  1. A \(\frac{ u }{2 g }\)
  2. B \(\frac{ u }{ g }\)
  3. C \(\frac{2 u }{ g }\)
  4. D \(\frac{\sqrt{3} u }{ g }\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{ u }{ g }\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(u \cos \theta=\frac{\sqrt{3} u }{2} \Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow \theta=30^{\circ}\) \(T =\frac{2 u \sin 30^{\circ}}{ g }=\frac{ u }{ g }\)
