Solution

The correct option is C u22g
ranges of both projectile motion are equal therefore
R1=R2

v2osin2θ1g=v2osin2θ2g
sin2θ1=sin2θ2 --------------(i)
2θ1=π2θ2

θ1=π2θ2

maximum height of first projectile at angle π3 is y1
y1=v2osin2θ12g

y2=v2osin2θ22g
therefore y1+y2=v2o2g(sin2θ1+sin2θ2)=v2o2g(sin2θ1+sin2(π2θ1))=v2o2g(sin2θ1+cos2θ1)=v2o2g
