A missile is launched with a speed of 75 ms-1 at an angle of 22° above the surface of a warship. Find the horizontal range achieved by the missile. Ignore the effects of air resistance.

[Take g = 10 ms-2]

A.

195 m

B.

271 m

C.

391 m

D.

136 m

Correct answer is C

U= 75 ms1 =22º,   g= 10 ms2 ,   R=?
 

   R=     U2sin2θg


⇒R=     752×sin2(22)10

⇒R=      5625×Sin4410

⇒R=      5625×0.694710

⇒R=      3907.6910


 ⇒    391m
