Solution

The correct option is B 37
Given : y=4t2t2 ......(i)
We know that vertical displacement of a projectile from the ground is given by
y=uyt12gpt2.
On comparing eqn (i) with above equation, we get uy=4 and gp=4
Horizontal displacement of the projectile is given by
x=uxt
Comparing with x=3tux=3tanθ=uyux=43
i.e Angle of projection is 53 with horizontal.
Angle of projection of projectile with vertical =(9053)=37
Hence, option (b) is correct.
