Answer

(a) $\approx 3535m$ (b) $\approx 1531m$ (c) 200 m/s

Work Step by Step

(a) Given: $v_0=200 m/s$ and $\theta =60^\circ$ Since, we have $v(t)=\lt 200 \cos 60^\circ, 200 \sin 60^\circ-9.8 t\gt$ This implies that $v(t)=\lt 100 ,100 \sqrt3-9.8 t\gt$ As $r(t)=\int v(t) dt=\int [\lt 100 ,100 \sqrt3-9.8 t\gt]dt=\lt 100t ,100 \sqrt3t-4.9t^2\gt$ Range will be: $t=\dfrac{2 (200)(sin 60)}{g} \approx 3535m$ (b) From part (a), we have $t=35.35$ Thus, Maximum height$=100 \sqrt3(17.58)-4.9(17.68)^2=\approx 1531 m$ (c) Speed is given by $s(t)=|v(t)|=\sqrt{(100)^2+(100 \sqrt3-9.8 t)^2}=200 m/s$ Hence, the required answers are: (a) $\approx 3535m$ (b) $\approx 1531m$ (c) 200 m/s
