Answer:
A. 11.5 m
Explanation:
Given,
The initial velocity of the soda cap, u = 15 m/s
The soda bottle cap is projected vertically upwards,
Hence, the angle formed with the ground, Ф = 90°
The maximum height of the projectile is given by the formula,
[tex]h_{max} =\frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\phi}{2g}[/tex]
Substituting the given values in the above equation
[tex]h_{max} =\frac{15^{2}sin^{2}90}{2X9.8}[/tex]
= 11.5 m
Hence, the maximum height of the cap is h = 11.5 m
