A cannonball with an initial height of 1.00 meter above the ground is fired from a cannon at an angle of 53° above the horizontal. The cannonball travels a horizontal distance of 90 meters to a 70 meter high castle wall, and passes over 6 meters above the highest point of the wall. (Assume air friction is negligible.)
