You are exploring a distant planet. When your spaceship is in a circular orbit at a distance of 630 km above the planet's surface, the ship's orbital speed is 5200 m/s. By observing the planet, you determine its radius to be 4.48×106m. You then land on the surface and, at a place where the ground is level, launch a small projectile with initial speed 11.6 m/s at an angle of 30.8∘ above the horizontal.
a)If resistance due to the planet's atmosphere is negligible, what is the horizontal range of the projectile?
