At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40 degrees above horizontal. She leaves the cannon at 2m above ground and lands in a net 1m above the ground. At what height does a human cannonball reach?

Respuesta :

The maximum height reached by the human cannonball is 4.74 m.

Height reached by the human cannonball

The height reached is calculated as follows;

H = u²sin²θ/2g

where;

  • u is the initial velocity
  • θ is the angle of projection

H = (15² x [sin(40)]² )/(2 x 9.8)

H = 4.74 m

Thus, the maximum height reached by the human cannonball is 4.74 m.
