$A$ projectile thrown from the ground has initial speed $u$ and its direction makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. If at maximum height from the ground,the speed of the projectile is half its initial speed of projection,then the maximum height reached by the projectile is:
$[g = \text{acceleration due to gravity}, \sin 30^{\circ} = \cos 60^{\circ} = 0.5, \cos 30^{\circ} = \sin 60^{\circ} = \sqrt{3}/2]$

  • A
    $\frac{2u^2}{g}$
  • B
    $\frac{3u^2}{8g}$
  • C
    $\frac{u^2}{g}$
  • D
    $\frac{u^4}{2g}$

In the climax of a movie,the hero jumps from a helicopter and the villain chasing the hero also jumps at the same time from the same level. After some time,when they are at the same horizontal level,the villain fires a bullet horizontally towards the hero. Both the hero and the villain are falling with a constant downward acceleration of $2\ m/s^2$ due to their parachutes. Assuming the hero is within the range of the bullet and air resistance on the bullet is negligible,which of the following is correct?
