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

Two guns \(A\) and \(B\) can fire bullets at speed \(1\, km/s\) and \(2\, km/s\) respectively. From a point on a horizontal ground, they are fired in all possible directions. The ratio of maximum areas covered by the bullets fired by the two guns, on the ground is

  1. A \(1:16\)
  2. B \(1:2\)
  3. C \(1:4\)
  4. D \(1:8\) 
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1:16\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Area \( \propto \,\pi \) \({{\rm{(Range)}}^2} \propto {v^4}\) \(\therefore \frac{{{A_1}}}{{{A_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^4}\)
