Answer:
Range, R = 5090.1 meters
Explanation:
It is given that,
Velocity of cannon, v = 240 m/s
A cannon is shot at a 30 degree angle above the horizontal. The range of this shot is given by the formula as follows :
[tex]R=\dfrac{v^2\ sin2\theta}{g}[/tex]
g = acceleration due to gravity
[tex]R=\dfrac{(240\ m/s)^2\ sin2(30)}{9.8\ m/s^2}[/tex]
R = 5090.1 meters
So, the range of this shot is 5090.1 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
