Comparing Two Projectiles

Two balls with same mass and initial velocity, are projected at different angles in such a way that maximum height reached by first ball is 8 times higher than that of the second ball. $T_1$ and $T_2$ are the total flying times of first and second ball, respectively, then the ratio of $T_1$ and $T_2$ is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Same speed: $H \propto \sin^2\theta$ and $T \propto \sin\theta$ , so $T \propto \sqrt{H}$ .
$\frac{T_1}{T_2} = \sqrt{\frac{H_1}{H_2}} = \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2}$
So the answer is (c) $2\sqrt{2} : 1$ .
