Then the maximum height of the catapult will be 69.78 meters.
<h3>What is kinematics?</h3>
The study of motion without considering the mass and the cause of the motion. The equation of motion is given below.
v = u + at
s = ut + (1/2)at²
v² = u² + 2as
A catapult can project a projectile at a speed as high as 37.0 m/s. (a) if air resistance can be ignored.
a = - 9.81 m/s²
u = 37 m/s
v = 0
s = h
Then the maximum height of the catapult will be given by the third equation.
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 37² - 2 × 9.81 × h
h = 37² / (2 × 9.81)
h = 69.78 meters
Then the maximum height of the catapult will be 69.78 meters.
