Question
A projectile is fired into air from the top of a cliff, with an initial speed vo = 30 m/s at
an angle of 60° above the horizontal. The projectile hits
the ground after a time t = 6s. (g = 10m/s?)
The height h of the cliff is approximately:
- 30 m/s
A. 131 m
60°
B. 90 m
C. 24 m
D. 63 m
Cliff
h=?
E 112 m

A care package is released from an air plane traveling horizontally at a height of 720 m above the
ground with a velocity of 115 m/s (g = 10m/s)
The package s speed v just before if
strikes the ground is.
A. 115 ms
