The position of projectile launched from the origin at t = 0 is given by r=40i^+50j^m at t = 2s. If the projectile was launched at an angle θ from the horizontal, then θ is (take g = 10 m/s2).

a
tan-1(2/3)
b
tan-1(3/2)
c
tan-1(7/4)
d
tan-1(4/5)

detailed solution

Correct option is C

The position vector of the projectile is r→=ut→+12at→240i^+50j^=u→×2+12(−10j^)×22⇒u→=uxi^+uyj^=20i^+35j^tan⁡θ=uyux=3520=74⇒θ=tan−1⁡74
