Problem

A stone is thrown with speed 20 m s−120\,\text{m s}^{-1} at an angle of 45∘45^{\circ} above the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance and taking g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}, find the height (to the nearest tenth of a metre) when its horizontal displacement is 20 m20\,\text{m}. (a) 20.0 m20.0\,\text{m} (b) 15.0 m15.0\,\text{m} (c) 10.2 m10.2\,\text{m} (d) 9.8 m9.8\,\text{m}
