Q130 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2018 (07 May Shift 1) · Physics

A $1.5 \mathrm{~kg}$ ball is shot upward at an angle of $34^{\circ}$ to the horizontal with an initial speed of $20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$, then maximum height of the ball reaches is (use $\cos 34^{\circ}=0.83$ or $\sin 34^{\circ}=0.56$ )

  • Correct answer
    A
    $6.3 \mathrm{~m}$
  • B
    $9.4 \mathrm{~m}$
  • C
    $13.8 \mathrm{~m}$
  • D
    $11.2 \mathrm{~m}$

Solution

Given, inífial speed, $\mathrm{u}=20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ angle of projection, $\theta=34^{\circ}$ Maximum height, $H=\frac{\mu^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{2 g}$ $$ \begin{aligned} & r=\frac{(20)^2 \times \sin ^2 34}{2 \times 9.8}=\frac{400 \times\langle 0.56)^2}{2 \times 9.8} \\ & H=\frac{125.44}{19.6}=6.3 \mathrm{~m} \end{aligned} $$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
