11. + -18 points SerPSE10 4.C.OP.046. My Notes + Ask Your Teacher In a naval battle, a cruiser is attempting to fire on a corvette. The cruiser is a distance d, = 2,000 m to the east of the peak of a mountain on an island, as shown in the figure below. The corvette is attempting to evade cannon shells fired from the cruiser by hiding on the west side of the island. The initial speed of the shells that the cruiser fires is v; = 245 m/s. The peak of the mountain is h = 2,040 m above sea level, and the western shore of the island is a horizontal distance d, = 260 m from the peak. What are the distances (in m), as measured from the western shore of the island, at which the corvette will be safe from fire from the cruiser? (Note the figure is not to scale. You may assume that the height and width of the corvette are small compared to d, and h.) 0 V, mu - d - less than m, or more than Need Help? Read It
