Figure shows four paths for a kicked football. Ignoring the effects of air on the flight, rank the paths according to initial horizontal velocity component keeping highest first.

a
1, 2, 3, 4
b
2, 3, 4, 1
c
3, 4, 1, 2
d
4, 3, 2, 1

detailed solution

Correct option is D

R=u2sin2θg=2uxuyg∴ Range ∝ Horizontal initial velocity component (ux) In path 4, range is maximum, so football has maximum horizontal velocity component in this path and in path 1, range is minimum. So, horizontal velocity component is minimum.
