****Need help with parts C and D****

I am completely stuck. Need help. I have attached the problem. Please view both attachments before answering. I have also attached the link to the simulator. I have solved part A and b. I need help with part C and D please. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

 

 

Now, please check your simulation distance with the range predicted by the range
equation. Assuming no air resistance, the range equation gives us the distance an object
travels when launched on flat ground:
(v² sin 20
)
part C
distance traveled =
In this equation,
V = the launch velocity
sin 20 = sin (60 degrees) = 0.866
g = gravity, the exact value used is 9.81 in the default version of the simulation. Please
%3D
make sure yours was set at this value.
Write out your calculation for the distance traveled and paste it
The percent error of the range is:
|simulated-calculated|
error =
100%
calculated
part D
what is your percent error of the distance traveled?
Please type your calculation

Now you try out the simulation:
https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/projectile-motion/latest/projectile-motion en.html
part A
In the lab mode, set the cannon to fire at 30 degrees from the horizontal. Make sure air
resistance is turned off. Set the cannon speed to 10 m/s and fire!
Use the range field of the inspector crosshairs (discussed in the first video) to measure
how far it went. Let's call this distance D10
Now double the speed, increasing it to 20 m/s. What do you think happens to the distance
traveled? Does it double? Less than double? More than double? Try it out and record how
far it went. Let's call this distance D20
Now, how many times farther did it actually go? Please round your answer to three
D20
significant digits. This answer should be the ratio of distances traveled:
D10
part B
