Question

A particle is projected at 60° to horizontal with 30 m/s (g = 10 m/s²). Velocity at maximum height is:
  1. A
    15 m/s
    Correct
  2. B
    15√3 m/s
  3. C
    30 m/s
  4. D
    0 m/s

Correct answer

15 m/s

Explanation

At max height, only horizontal component remains: v = ucos60° = 30×(1/2) = 15 m/s.
