Recall that the flight of a projectile can be modeled with the parametric equations: ,
where t is in seconds, vo is the initial velocity, is the angle with the horizontal, and x and y are in feet.
A missile is fired from a ship at an angle of 39°, an initial height of 20 feet above the water's surface, and at a speed of 3890 feet per second. Will it be able to hit a target that is 2.4 miles away?
A) Yes, it will easily hit the target.
B) No, it will miss the target.
