$A$ particle is projected from the ground with velocity $u$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The horizontal range,maximum height,and time of flight are $R, H$,and $T$ respectively. They are given by $R = \frac{u^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}$,$H = \frac{u^2 \sin^2 \theta}{2g}$,and $T = \frac{2u \sin \theta}{g}$. Now,keeping $u$ fixed,$\theta$ is varied from $30^o$ to $60^o$. Then,

$A$ projectile of mass $1 \, kg$ is projected with a velocity of $\sqrt{20} \, m/s$ such that it strikes on the same level as the point of projection at a distance of $\sqrt{3} \, m$. Which of the following options are incorrect:

$A$ projectile is launched from the origin in the $xy$ plane ($x$ is the horizontal and $y$ is the vertically up direction) making an angle $\alpha$ from the $x$-axis. If its distance $r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$ from the origin is plotted against $x$,the resulting curves show different behaviors for launch angles $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ as shown in the figure. For $\alpha_1$,$r(x)$ keeps increasing with $x$,while for $\alpha_2$,$r(x)$ increases and reaches a maximum,then decreases and goes through a minimum before increasing again. The switch between these two cases takes place at a critical angle $\alpha_c$ (where $\alpha_1 < \alpha_c < \alpha_2$). The value of $\alpha_c$ is (where $v_0$ is the initial speed of the projectile and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

Two objects of equal mass are projected with the same velocity $v$ at the same angle $\theta$ towards each other from a distance $R$. What is the momentum of the system at the moment of collision?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moves along a circular path of radius $r$ with a time-dependent centripetal acceleration $a_c = k^2rt^2$,where $k$ is a constant. What is the power delivered to the particle by the force acting on it?
