Current Attempt in Progress
A rocket is fired at a speed of 53.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 55.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 15.9-
m high wall, which is located 18.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly 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?
