NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11
A projectile is launched with an initial velocity v₀ at an angle θ₀ with the horizontal. If the horizontal range is R and the acceleration due to gravity is g, which of the following expressions correctly represents R?
A
R = (v₀²/g) sin(2θ₀)
B
R = (v₀²/g) cos(2θ₀)
C
R = (v₀/g) sin(θ₀)
D
R = (v₀²/g) tan(θ₀)
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT context gives the formula for range of a projectile as R = (v₀²/g) sin(2θ₀), showing that the range depends on the sine of twice the launch angle.
