The rocket is fired towards an 28.8m high wall, which is located 25.0m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a neglibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall (in meters)?arrow_forwardA potato gun fires with a velocity of 20.1 m/s at 27.0 degrees above the horizontal.
