A ball is projected with a velocity 20 m/s at an angle to the horizontal. In order to have maximum range, what should be its velocity at the highest point???

When the velocity becomes perpendicular to initial velocity following condition must hold true.
gt sin30 = v ( think why ? Hint: geometric method of vector addition )
t = v/ g× sin30
= 20/9.8× 0.5
= 4.08 seconds
