Question
A cannon at the top of a 176 m high cliff fires at a pirate ship. The cannonball has an initial velocity of 149 m/s at 68° above horizontal. Ignore air resistance. At what angle (positive angle below horizontal) is the cannonball traveling when it hits the water? ?x= 1641.08 t= 29.41A cannon at the top of a 176 m high cliff fires at a pirate ship.
