Problem

A projectile is launched from level ground, stays in the air for 6 s6\,\text{s}, and lands 80 m80\,\text{m} away. Take g=9.8 m s−2g=9.8\,\text{m\,s}^{-2}. The magnitude of its initial velocity is closest to (a) 40.0 m s−140.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (b) 28.0 m s−128.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (c) 32.3 m s−132.3\,\text{m\,s}^{-1} (d) 42.7 m s−142.7\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}
