A fortress on a mountain uses a cannon for defense. It m launches a cannonball with an initial velocity v = 150 ". The cannon is supported by 4 blocks on its base and 3 blocks to hold its angle. The cannon is 150 m from the foot of the mountain. How far from the fortress will the cannonball land? Sx = 2.39 km
