The maximum height : 81.63 m
Given
0.4 kg mass
vo = initial speed = 40 m/s
Required
the maximum height
Solution
We can use the law of conservation energy(ME=PE+KE) or use parabolic motion
For parabolic motion :
h max = (vo²sin²θ)/2g
θ = 90°(straight upward)
Input the value :
h max = (40²sin²90°)/2 x 9.8
h max = 81.63 m
