Solution

The correct options are
B h1=h2
C R2R1=g sin θ T22
D R2R1=g sin θ T21
If the particle is projected with a velocity v at an angle α with the plane, then the maximum displacement of the particle normal to the plane is given as h=(vsinα)22gcosθ
Here gcosθ is the component of gravitational acceleration normal to the plane.
Since in the both the given cases the particle is projected at an angle α with the plane and the plane has an inclination θ with horizontal, then both h1 and h2 will be equal to each other and their magnitude will be equal to v2sin2α2gcosθ.
The time of flight in both the cases will be equal to 2vsinαgcosθ.
Here vsinα is the normal component of projection.
If we consider the motion of particles along the plane then the range of the first particle will be
R1=vcosαT12gsinθT2
and the range of the other particle will be
R2=vcosαT+12gsinθT2
Thus we get the value of R2R1=gsinθT2
As the value for time of periods for both the particles are same we get both C and D as correct.
