Acannon is mounted on a tower above a wide, level field. the barrel of the cannon is 20 m above the ground below. a cannonball is fired horizontally with an initial speed of 700 m/s. assuming air resistance can be neglected, approximately how long will the cannonball be in flight before it hits the ground?

Aball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.9 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 51.6 m above the ground. the ball just misses the edge of the roof on its way down, as shown in the figure. (a) determine the time needed for the ball to reach its maximum height. (b) determine the maximum height. (c) determine the time needed for the ball to return to the height from which it was thrown, and the velocity of the ball at that instant. (d) determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground. (e) determine the velocity and position of the ball at t = 5.35 s.
