A projectile is fired at an angle of 47degrees above the horizontal with an initial speed of 183m/s and lands at the same height. How far does the projectile travel in the horizontal direction? ignore air resistance.

A projectile is fired straight upward at 141 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ . How fast is it moving at the instant it reaches the top of its trajectory? Suppose that it were fired upward at $45^{\circ}$ instead. Then its horizontal component of velocity would be 100 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ . What would be the speed of the projectile at the top of its trajectory?

A projectile is shot in the air from ground level with an initial velocity of 500 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}$ at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The graph is shown here: What is the total flight time of the projectile?
