Figure shows four paths for a kicked football. Ignoring the effects of air on the flight, rank the paths according to initial horizontal velocity component, highest first

A

$1, 2, 3, 4$

B

$2, 3, 4, 1$

C

$3, 4, 1, 2$

D

$4, 3, 2, 1$

Figure shows four paths for a kicked football. Ignoring the effects of air on the flight, rank the paths according to initial horizontal velocity component, highest first

$R = \frac{{{u^2}\sin 2\theta }}{g} = \frac{{2{u_x}{v_y}}}{g}$

Range $\propto$ horizontal initial velocity $(ux)$

In path $4$ range is maximum so football possess maximum horizontal velocity in this path.
