A shell is fired from the ground with an initial speed of 1.60 × 10^3 m/s (approximately five times the speed of sound) at an initial angle of 68.0◦ to the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s^2 Neglecting air resistance, find the shell's horizontal range? Answer in units of m

181276.802 m

Explanation:

The computation of the horizontal range of the shell is shown below:

As we know that

range = u × usin2θ ÷ g

where,

u = 1600 m/s

θ = 68

g=9.81

Put these values to the above formula

So, the value of the horizontal range of the shell is

R = 181276.802 m

=  181276.802 m

We simply applied the above formula and the same is to be considered
