$A$ body when projected at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal reaches a maximum height $H$. The time of flight of the body will be ($g=$ acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ ball $P$ is projected at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical with a certain initial speed $u$. Another ball $Q$ of the same mass $m$ as that of ball $P$ is projected vertically upwards with the same initial speed $u$. At the highest point, the ratio of the potential energy of ball $P$ to that of ball $Q$ is $(\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5)$.
