Problems 9 and 25.
You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 5.0s for the dart to land back at the barrel.
What is the maximum horizontal range of your gun? Express answer using two significant figures.
A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff 115 m above
ground level with an initial speed of vo = 54 m/s at an
angle of 35.0° with the horizontal, as shown in the figure
(Figure 1).
