A stone is thrown at an angle of 50° with an initial velocity of 12 m/s. How far horizontally will the stone travel before it hits the ground?
To find the horizontal distance (range) the stone will travel before hitting the ground, we can follow these steps:
Calculate the time of flight ():
The time of flight for a projectile launched at an angle is given by:
First, we need to calculate the initial vertical velocity ():
