Solution

Initial velocity in vertical direction uy = u sinθ uy = 39.2×12 = 19.6 m/sInitial velocity in horizontal direction= ux = u cosθ =39.2×32 m/sat the top most height vertical component of velocity is zero.vy = 0 = uy - gt0 = 19.6 - 9.8 tt = 2 sdistance travelled in 2 ss = uyt - 12gt2s = 19.6×2-0.5×9.8×2×2 = 19.6 mNet vertical distancetravelled in downward motion d = 19.6 + 156.8 = 176.4 mtime taken to reach the groundd = ut+ 12gt2when bosy styart falling u = 0176.4 = 0 + 0.5×9.8×t2t = 6 sHorizontal distance travelled in 6+2 = 8 sR = ucosθ×t= 39.2×32×8R = 271.5 m
