The maximum height reached by projectile is 4 m. The horizontal range is 12m. The velocity of projection in ms–¹ is : (g is acceleration due to gravity) :
\[5\sqrt{g/2}\]
\[3\sqrt{g/2}\]
\[1/3\sqrt{g/2}\]
\[1/5\sqrt{g/2}\]

Solution:

We Know that,

\[ \frac{R}{H}=\frac{4}{tan\theta}\]

\[ tan \theta = 4/3 \]

\[ H = \frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\theta}{2g} \]

Solving we get

\[ u= 5\sqrt{g/2}\]
