A projectile is fired at time t = 0.0 s, from point 0 at the edge of a cliff, with initial velocity components of vox = 50 m/s and voy = 800 m/s. The projectile rises, then falls into the sea at point P. The time of flight of the projectile is 200 s. In the figure, the x-coordinate of the projectile when its y-component of velocity equals 640 m/s upward is closest to: 860 m 780 m 820 m 700 m 740 m

Question

A projectile is fired at time t = 0.0 s, from point 0 at the edge of a cliff, with initial velocity components of vox = 50 m/s and voy = 800 m/s. The projectile rises, then falls into the sea at point P. The time of flight of the projectile is 200 s.

In the figure, the x-coordinate of the projectile when its y-component of velocity equals 640 m/s upward is closest to: 

860 m
