Answer:

The range of the projectile is 60 meters

Explanation:

To determine the range/distance of the projectile, the formula for velocity is used;

velocity = distance/time

where velocity is 15 m/s

time is 4 seconds

distance is unknown

From the formula above, distance is made the subject and thus

distance = velocity × time

distance = 15 × 4

distance = 60 m

The range of the projectile is 60 meters
