Problema Solution

a projectile is fired at an angle of 60 degrees from the ground. its range is found to be 500 meters. find its initial velocity.

Answer provided by our tutors

Range R=v^2 sin2*60 /g.

500=v^2*0.866/9.81.

0.866v^2=500*9.81.

v^2=(500*9.81)/0.866

=5663.8.

v=sqrt(5663.8).

=75.26 m/sec.
