When a projectile is fired with a velocity of 815 m/s at angle of 37 degrees above the horizontal, the maximum height reached by the projectile is about?
Aprojictile is fired at an angle of 30 from the horizontal with some initial speed.if the initial speed of the second projectile is twice that of the first projictile,firing at what other projectiles angle results in the same range.neglect air resistance.
Show that the maximum horizontal distance for a projectile can be attained when the angle is 45 degrees.
