A ball is thrown with an initial speed of 18 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. • Find the maximum height of the ball above the ground. • Find the total time in the air, assuming the projectile lands at the same level it was launched from. • Calculate the speed of the ball at the highest point in the trajectory.

A ball is launched with a speed of (16.5 + A) m/s at an angle of (18.5 + B) degrees above the horizontal. How high above a level ground is the ball at the highest point of its trajectory? Calculate the answer in meters (m) and rounded to three significant figures. A: 6 B: 13
