Short Answer
Recall that the flight of a projectile can be modeled with the parametric equations:
,
where t is in seconds, νo is the initial velocity, θ is the angle with the horizontal, and x and y are in feet.
A projectile is launched at a speed of 560 ft/sec at an angle of 47° with the horizontal. After how many seconds does the projectile hit the ground? Round to one decimal place.
