Correct Option - 2
Detailed Solution:

 y=αxβx2

dydx=α2βx=0

x=α2β

ymax=α*α2ββ* (α2β)2=α24β

Range = 2x=αβ=2u2sinθ.cosθg

On comparing with

y = x tan θ- gx22u2cos2θ

| A + B | = 2 | A B |

Given A = B

Squaring equation (1) both side.

| A + B | 2 = ( 2 | A B | ) 2

A 2 + B 2 + 2 A . B = 4 ( A 2 + B 2 2 A . B )

2A2 + 2A2 cosq = 4 (2A2 – 2A2 cosq)

   2A2 + 2A2 cosq = 8A2 – 8A2 cosq

 10A2 cosq = 6A2

cosq =   3 5

 q = cos-1 (3/5)

y - component of initial velocity

= u sinθ 

=26×526

= 5 m/s
