R = u² sin(2θ)/g is maximum when sin(2θ)=1 i.e. θ=45° (neglecting air resistance).
Q4. Mean Value Theorem (Lagrange) guarantees c with:
Mathematics- f(c) = 0
- f'(c) = (f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)
- c = (a+b)/2
- f'(c) = 0
Show answer + explanation
Correct: B. f'(c) = (f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)
At some c in (a,b), instantaneous rate equals average rate. Basis for many proofs.
