For a fixed initial speed, the range of a projectile is determined by the angle at which it is fired. For all but the maximum, there are two angles that give the same range. Considering factors that might affect the ability of an archer to hit a target, such as wind, explain why the smaller angle (closer to the horizontal) is preferable. When would it be necessary for the archer to use the larger angle? Why does the punter in a football game use the higher trajectory?
A cannon at an elevation of 2000 feet above sea level fires a missile upward at an angle of 45 degrees to hit a target on a boat at sea on the far side of a mountain.

Determine the firing velocity of the missile. b. Determine the height of the mountain. c. Determine the total range of the missile (distance from cannon to target)
