Question

Emanuel Zacchini, the famous human cannonball of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum &
Bailey Circus, was fired out of a cannon with a speed of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 37° to
the horizontal.
What is his vertical velocity?

O 18.05 m/s
O 23.96 m/s
O 30 m/s

Other questions:

What is the maximum height?

What is the horizontal velocity

If it landed at net 88.279m away at the same height from which he was fired, how long was he in the air?

Please i need help. Its a test.

Answer 1

Answer:

We have that Assuming No air resistance,the initial horizontal velocity of the cannonball is

From the question we are told that

A cannonball is shot from a cannon at a launch angle of 35 and an initial velocity of 147 m/s

Generally the equation for the horizontal velocity  is mathematically given as

Therefore

Therefore Assuming No air resistance,the initial horizontal velocity of the cannonball is For more information on this visit
