Initial velocity(u) = 11.2 m/s.
Final velocity(v) = ?
acceleration(a) = 10.2 m/s²
Using kinematic equation v = u + at
v = 11.2 + 10 x 8 = 11.2 + 80 = 91.2 m/s.
Therefore final velocity is 91.2 m/s.
(a) The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.
(b) The work done in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.
<h3>
Kinetic energy of the projectile at maximum height</h3>
The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is calculated as follows;
K.E = ¹/₂mv₀ₓ²
where;
- m is mass of the projectile
- v₀ₓ is the initial horizontal component of the velocity at maximum height
<u>Note:</u> At maximum height the final vertical velocity is zero and the final horizontal velocity is equal to the initial horizontal velocity.
K.E = (0.5)(2)(30²)
K.E = 900 J
<h3>Work done in firing the projectile</h3>
Based on the principle of conservation of energy, the work done in firing the projectile is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the projectile.
W = K.E(i) = ¹/₂mv²
where;
- v is the resultant velocity
v = √(30² + 40²)
v = 50 m/s
W = (0.5)(2)(50²)
W = 2,500 J
Thus, the kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.
The work done in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.

This problem must be solved using a sketch. I attached an illustration of the problem.
You must trace the ray that reflects from the top off the table to your eyes. This how eyesight works, light rays reflects off the objects into your eyes.
Law of reflection tells us that light ray reflects off the surface at the same angle in which it falls on it( i attached another illustration of this).
Now we can write tangens equations:

We solve for h:
Ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok
I can not solve the problem if I do not have the mass.
