Differentiate the terms of horizontal range and time of flight wrt to angle and obtain differentials. Divide by horizontal range and time of flight to obtain fractional changes. Put theta=60 degrees and obtain values of y/x. Solve.
1. A projectile is fired at an angle 60â—¦ with some velocity u. If the angle is changed infinitesimally, let the corresponding fractional changes in the range and the time of flight be x and y, respectively, Then y is
(A) 2/3x
(B) −2/3x
(C) 2x
(D) −2x
