Range = Vo^2*sin(2A)/g = 12 m.
Vo^2*sin(28.4)/9.8 = 12
Vo^2*sin(28.4) = 117.6
Vo^2 = 117.6/sin(28.4) = 247.3
Vo = 15.72 m/s.
A daredevil decides to jump a canyon of
width 12 m. To do so, he drives a motorcycle
up an incline sloped at an angle of 14.2◦.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .
What minimum speed must he have in order
to clear the canyon?
