Daring darless wishes to cross the grand canyon of the snake river by being shot from a cannon. she wishes to be launched at 65 ∘ relative to the horizontal so she can spend more time in the air waving to the crowd.

with what minimum speed must she be launched to cross the 520-m gap?
express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

She must be launched with minimum speed of 57.67 m/s to clear the 520 m gap.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The angle of projection of the projectile is, °

Range of the projectile is, m.

Acceleration due to gravity,

The minimum speed to cross the gap is the initial speed of the projectile and can be determined using the formula for range of projectile.

The range of projectile is given as:

Plug in all the given values and solve for minimum speed, .

Therefore, she must be launched with minimum speed of 57.67 m/s to clear the 520 m gap.
