Question

P1.A cannonball is shot at an angle of 45" with an initial velocity vo. This is calculated to exactly land at point B in a projectile trajectory. However, the people at point B launched a rocket with an initial ve locity at 20 from the horizontal sometime after the cannonball launched. The rocket, which will intercept the cannonball at some vertical distance from the ground level, is in a linear path, Find (a) horizontal distance between point A and Point B (b) required velocity of the rocket for it to interce pt the cannon ball (c) the vertical distance from the ground level where they will meet. 200m
