C1.5. Simple multiple-choice question

A cannon ball with mass $m = 1.8 \rm\ kg$ is fired downward from a cliff at a height $h = 2.67 \rm\ m$, at an angle $\theta = 31^o$ with respect to the horizontal, and an initial velocity $v_0 = 20 \rm\ m/s$, as illustrated in the figure below.

Suppose the ball hits the ground a distance $d = 4 \rm\ m$ from the base of the cliff. How long is the ball in the air? Assume the acceleration due to gravity is $g=9.8 \rm\ m/s^2$.

(a)

$t = 0.259 \rm\ s$

(b)

$t = 0.388 \rm\ s$

(c)

$t = 0.2 \rm\ s$

(d)

$t = 0.738 \rm\ s$

(e)

None of the above
