please help :) projectile motion question!
Zandor is being shot out of his cannon (at a velocity of 40 m/s) at an angle of 40 degrees above the horizontal. He is planning to pass through a ring of fire (which is 60 m from where he starts) to the landing pad. How far is the ring of fire from the ground? How far is the landing pad from where he starts?
x=xo+vxo+at^2
y=yo+vyo+at^2
I tried finding time and got 6/4 seconds but I don't know if it's correct or not.
