Question

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 20 m/s at an angle of 30\(^\circ\) with the horizontal. Calculate the maximum height reached by the projectile.

• A. 10 m
• B. 5.1 m
• C. 20 m
• D. 25 m

Hint:

The maximum height of a projectile depends on the square of the initial velocity and the sine of the angle. The greater the initial velocity and angle, the higher the projectile will go.
