Question

Can anyone please help me answer this question?

A body of mass 5 kg, projected at an angle 60 degrees from the ground at an initial velocity of 25 m/s, acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s^2. What is the maximum horizontal range covered?
a.) 54.13 m b.) 49 m c.) 49.16 m d.) 60 m. Explain.

Answer 1

a) 54.13m

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for horizontal range is R = v2 (sin 2θ)/g. Here, v = 25, θ = 60°, g = 10. Hence, on solving we will get range as 54.13 m.
