According to known data, the range was 24000 meters, and that the British 15-inch Mk I naval gun has a maximum muzzle velocity of 800 meters per second. Due to movement, a headwind was against the British battleship, forcing its shells to decelerate by approximately 0.5 meters per second squared. Find the firing angle of the Warspite upon hitting Guilio Cesare. Find the impact velocity of the 15-inch naval cannon's shell.arrow_forward
