Problem

A ball is projected from the ground with speed 25 m s−125\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} at an angle of 30∘30^{\circ} above the horizontal. Taking g=9.8 m s−2g=9.8\,\text{m\,s}^{-2}, which of the following is the correct equation of its trajectory (with xx and yy in metres)? (a) y=0.87x−0.010x2y = 0.87x - 0.010x^{2} (b) y=0.58x−0.010x2y = 0.58x - 0.010x^{2} (c) y=0.58x−0.021x2y = 0.58x - 0.021x^{2} (d) y=0.58x−0.008x2y = 0.58x - 0.008x^{2}
