$A$ particle is projected at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal from the ground with a velocity $10 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$. The angle between the velocity vector after $2 \ s$ and the initial velocity vector is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$. (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ projectile is fired from horizontal ground with speed $v$ and projection angle $\theta$. When the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,the range of the projectile is $d$. If at the highest point in its trajectory,the projectile enters a different region where the effective acceleration due to gravity is $g^{\prime}=\frac{g}{0.81}$,then the new range is $d^{\prime}=n d$. The value of $n$ is. . . . .
