Simulate projectile motion with air resistance in PhysLab. A shuttlecock is launched from the ground with an initial speed of 33.5003 m/s at an angle of 8.0035 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The shuttlecock experiences air resistance with a drag coefficient of 0.111 in an environment where the air density is 0.6776 kg/m3. If the shuttlecock has a radius of 3.4 cm and a mass of 5.2 grams, what is the maximum height reached by the shuttlecock? Assume that the experiment is done near the surface of the earth.
