The ratio of the speed of a projectile at the point of projection to the speed at the top of its trajectory is $x$. The angle of projection with the horizontal is

  • A
    $\sin^{-1}(x)$
  • B
    $\cos^{-1}(x)$
  • C
    $\sin^{-1}(1/x)$
  • D
    $\cos^{-1}(1/x)$

If the height of a projectile at a time of $2 \ s$ from the beginning of motion is $60 \ m$,then the time of flight of the projectile is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $s$)

$A$ ball $P$ is projected at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical with a certain initial speed $u$. Another ball $Q$ of the same mass $m$ as that of ball $P$ is projected vertically upwards with the same initial speed $u$. At the highest point, the ratio of the potential energy of ball $P$ to that of ball $Q$ is $(\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5)$.
