उत्तर
Let u be the initial velocity and v be the velocity at the point where it makes an angle \[\frac{\theta}{2}\] with the horizontal component. It is given that the horizontal component remains unchanged.
Therefore, we get :
\[v \cos \left( \frac{\theta}{2} \right) = u cos\theta\]
\[\Rightarrow v = \frac{u\cos\theta}{\cos\frac{\theta}{2}} . . . \left( i \right) \]
\[mg\cos\frac{\theta}{2} = \frac{m v^2}{r} . . . \left( ii \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow r = \frac{v^2}{g\cos\frac{\theta}{2}}\]
On substituting the value of v from equation (i), we get :
\[r = \frac{u^2 \cos^2 \theta}{g \cos^2 \frac{\theta}{2}}\]
