A ball having kinetic energy KE, is projected at an angle of 60 from the horizontal. What will be the kinetic energy of ball at the highest point of its flight?
- (KE)2
- (KE)8
- (KE)4
- (KE)16
Answer
(3) (KE)4
Solution
Only gravity acts, so the horizontal velocity u 60 never changes; at the top the vertical part is zero.

vtop=u 60 = u2 top= 12m u24= KE4
Answer: (3)
