Answer 1

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

vertical velocity=13.9 sin 25

When it hits the ground  y = 0

0 = vo t - 1/2 a t^2

0    =  13.9 sin 25  t   - 1/2 (9.81)t^2  

0 = 13.9 sin 25 - 1/2 (9.81) t        shows t = 1.1976  ~ 1.2 sec

horizontal speed x time = distance

13.9 cos 25   x   1.1976 =15 .1 meters
