A particle moving in a circle of radius \(R\) with a uniform speed takes a time \(T\) to complete one revolution. If this particle were projected with the same speed at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal, the maximum height attained by it equals \(4R.\) The angle of projection, \(\theta\) is then given by:
1. \( \theta=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\pi^2 {R}}{{gT}^2}\right)^{1/2}\) 2. \(\theta=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2 {gT}^2}{\pi^2 {R}}\right)^{1 / 2}\)
3. \(\theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{{gT}^2}{\pi^2 {R}}\right)^{1 / 2}\) 4. \(\theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{\pi^2 {R}}{{gT}^2}\right)^{1 / 2}\)

A projectile is fired from the surface of the earth with a velocity of \(5~\text{m/s}\) and at an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal. Another projectile fired from another planet with a velocity of \(3~\text{m/s}\) at the same angle follows a trajectory that is identical to the trajectory of the projectile fired from the Earth. The value of the acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is:
(given \(g=9.8~\text{m/s}^2\) )

1. \(3.5~\text{m/s}^2\) 2. \(5.9~\text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(16.3~\text{m/s}^2\) 4. \(110.8~\text{m/s}^2\)

When a particle is projected at some angle to the horizontal, it has a range \(R\) and time of flight \(t_1\). If the same particle is projected with the same speed at some other angle to have the same range, its time of flight is \(t_2\), then:
1. \(t_{1} + t_{2} = \frac{2 R}{g}\)
2. \(t_{1} - t_{2} = \frac{R}{g}\)
3. \(t_{1} t_{2} = \frac{2 R}{g}\)
4. \(t_{1} t_{2} = \frac{R}{g}\)
