PhysicsMotion in a PlaneJEE Main

A particle is projected at 60° to the horizontal with a kinetic energy K. The kinetic energy at the highest point is

Answer: (C)

Solution

At the highest point, only the horizontal component of velocity (u cos60°) remains. KE at top = ½m(u cos60°)² = K cos²60° = K/4.
