A cannon fires projectiles at an angle. How do the magnitudes of the velocities compare? (you may assume that the projectile lands at the same level from which it was fired) Vo= firing (initial) velocity Vtop velocity at maximum height Vf= velocity just before it hits the ground (final velocity)

Question
A cannon fires projectiles at an angle. How do the magnitudes of the velocities compare? (you may assume that the projectile lands at the same level from which it was fired) Vo = firing (initial) velocity Vtop velocity at maximum height Vf = velocity just before it hits the ground (final velocity) Select one: a. Vo = Vtop > Vf = 0 b. Vo = Vf > Vtop > 0 C. Vo> Vtop > Vf = 0 d. Vo> Vtop > Vf > 0 e. Vo Vtop=Vf > 0
