Problem

A projectile launched from ground level returns to the same level after travelling 120 m120\,\text{m} horizontally. During its flight it rises to a maximum height of 20 m20\,\text{m}. Take g=10 m s−2g = 10\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-2}. Estimate the initial speed and the angle of projection. (a) 35 m s−1,  45∘35\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1},\;45^{\circ} (b) 36 m s−1,  34∘36\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1},\;34^{\circ} (c) 24 m s−1,  56∘24\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1},\;56^{\circ} (d) 45 m s−1,  18∘45\,\text{m}\,\text{s}^{-1},\;18^{\circ}
