A prototype missile strike ekranoplan nicknamed "Loon" (as shown on the left figure) is capable of cruising at 500 kph at an elevation of 5 m above the sea surface. During attack mode, it can fire Moskit missiles, which can travel at Mach 3 or three times the speed of sound (345 m/s), while flying at a speed of 400 kph. Suppose the missile behaves as a projectile, approximate its effective range, X, as fired from the moving ekranoplan neglecting air resistance and wind effects. Missile launch angle is approximately 15 degrees from the horizontal and muzzle opening is 14 m from sea level.

Transcribed Image Text:A prototype missile strike ekranoplan nicknamed "Loon" (as
shown on the left figure) is capable of cruising at 500 kph at an
elevation of 5 m above the sea surface. During attack mode, it can
fire Moskit missiles, which can travel at Mach 3 or three times the
