A projectile is fired at an angle of 450 with the horizontal. Elevation angle of the projectile at its highest point as seen from the point of projection is

a
600
b
tan-1(12)
c
tan-1(32)
d
450

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Height of projectileH = u2sin2θ2g = u2sin24502g⇒ H = u24g ------(i)Range of projectile R = u2sin 2θg = u2sin 900g⇒R = u2g      tan α = HR2In ∆OAB = u24gu22g     tan α =12   ⇒ α = tan-1(12)
