Homework Statement
A cannon fires projectiles on a flat range at fixed speed but with variable angle. The maximum range of the cannon is L. What is the range of the cannon when it fires at an angle [itex]\frac{\pi}{6}[/itex] above the horizontal? Ignore air resistance.
Homework Equations
Four kinematic equations.
The Attempt at a Solution
I honestly don't know where to start. What exactly does the question mean by the range of the cannon? Is that the horizontal distance the projectile goes?
