Answer :
Answer:
The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Vertical height of cliff = 230 m
Distance = 300 m
Suppose, determine the time taken by the projectile to hit the ground.
We need to calculate the time
Using second equation of motion
[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
Where, s = vertical height of cliff
u = initial vertical velocity
g = acceleration due to gravity
Put the value in the equation
[tex]230=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2[/tex]
[tex]t=\sqrt{\dfrac{230\times2}{9.8}}[/tex]
[tex]t=6.85 sec[/tex]
Hence, The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.
