Solution

Formula used:
T=2uygeff

s=ut+12 at2


When x and y axis are selected as shown in the diagram, the motion of projectile A is:

y=0
uy=v0cosθ
ay=θ
t=T

From Newton’s second equation of motion
y=uyt+12ayt2
0=v0cosθ T+12(gcosθ)T2
T=2v0g

Range along xaxis:
x=uxt+12 axt2
ux=vosinθ
ax=gsinθ
x=L
t=T

Putting values,we get
L=vosinθ(2v0g)+12 gsin θ(2v0g)2

L=4v2osinθg
