Question

A ball strikes a smooth horizontal ground at an angle of 45° with the vertical. What cannot be the possible angle of its velocity with the vertical after the collision. (Assume e ≤ 1).

Options

A.45°
B.30°
C.53°
D.60°

Solution

Sol.

tanθ = $\frac{v_{0}}{ev_{0}} = \frac{1}{e}$ e ≤1

tanθ ≥ 1 ⇒ θ ≥ 45°

∴ Ans. (B)
