A particle P P\,P is projected from a point on horizontal ground with initial velocity k(2i+5j)ms−1k(2\mathbf{i} + 5\mathbf{j})\text{ms}^{-1}k(2i+5j)ms−1, where k k\,k is a positive constant. Given that the maximum height reached by P P\,P is 10 m above the ground.
Find the exact value of kkk.
Find the horizontal distance travelled.
