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

Two projectiles are fired from ground with same initial speeds from same point at angles \(\left(45^{\circ}+\alpha\right)\) and \(\left(45^{\circ}-\alpha\right)\) with horizontal direction. The ratio of their times of flights is

  1. A 1
  2. B \(\frac{1-\tan \alpha}{1+\tan \alpha}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1+\sin 2 \alpha}{1-\sin 2 \alpha}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1+\tan \alpha}{1-\tan \alpha}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{1+\tan \alpha}{1-\tan \alpha}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\theta_1=45+\alpha ; \theta_2=45-\alpha\) Time of flight, \(\mathrm{T}=\frac{2 \mathrm{v} \sin \theta}{\mathrm{g}}\) \(\frac{\mathrm{T}_1}{\mathrm{~T}_2}=\frac{\sin (45+\alpha)}{\sin (45-\alpha)}\)…
