detailed solution

Correct option is D

The horizontal range of a projectile is given byR=u2sin⁡2θgThe range R is maximum when sin⁡2θ is maximum. Thussin⁡2θ=1  or  2θ=π/2or               θ=π/4∴         θ=45∘So, the body C will have the maximum range.

Assertion : When the velocity of projection of a body is made n times, its time of flight becomes n times.

Reason : Range of projectile does not depend on the initial velocity of a body.
