On the roof of a 24 meter high building there is a cannon. The barrel of the cannon is 4.0 meters long and forms the angle ? = 30° up from the horizontal. When the cannon is fired, the cannon ball leaves the muzzle the cannon barrel with the initial speed of 360 km/h regardless of the angle of the barrel. Suppose you find yourself in one area which, with the exception of the building you are standing on, is completely flat.
How long does it take for the bullet to hit the ground?

He can legally pass the ball to a teammate as long as the ball’s velocity relative to the field does not have a positive x component.

The barrel of the howitzer makes a 54.0° angle above horizontal, and the speed of the shell upon exiting the barrel is 350 m/s. The shell hits a target on the side of a mountain 35.5 s after firing. Assuming the point where the shell exits the barrel to be the origin, and assuming as usual that the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical, find the x and y coordinates, in meters, of the target. x = y = m marrow_forward
