Questions  

A projectile is projected with a linear momentum p making an angle θ with the horizontal. The change in momentum of the projectile on return to the ground will be

a
2 p
b
2pcos⁡θ
c
2psin⁡θ
d
2ptan⁡θ

detailed solution

Correct option is C

The angle made by the projectile with horizontal on return to the earth is −θ.  HenceΔp=[ipcos⁡θ+jpsin⁡θ] −[ipcos⁡(−θ)+jpsin⁡(−θ)]=j2psin⁡θ
