$A$ projectile thrown with a speed $v$ at an angle $\theta$ has a range $R$ on the surface of the Earth. For the same $v$ and $\theta$,its range on the surface of the Moon will be:

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: Two identical balls $A$ and $B$ thrown with the same velocity '$u$' at two different angles with the horizontal attain the same range $R$. If $A$ and $B$ reach maximum heights $h_{1}$ and $h_{2}$ respectively,then $R = 4 \sqrt{h_{1} h_{2}}$.
Reason $R$: The product of the said heights is $h_{1} h_{2} = \left(\frac{u^{2} \sin^{2} \theta}{2g}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{u^{2} \cos^{2} \theta}{2g}\right)$.

$A$ projectile is thrown with a velocity of $50 \, m/s$ at an angle of $53^o$ with the horizontal. Determine the instants at which the projectile is at the same height.

$A$ fighter plane, flying horizontally with a speed of $360 \text{ km/h}$ at an altitude of $500 \text{ m}$, drops a bomb for a target straight ahead of it on the ground. At what approximate distance ahead of the target should the bomb be dropped? Assume that acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$. Neglect air drag.

Assertion $(A)$: The range of a projectile is maximum when the angle of projection is $45^{\circ}$.
Reason $(R)$: The range of a projectile depends only on the angle of projection.
