A particle P P\,P is projected from the ground with velocity 24.5ms-1 at an angle of θ∘ \theta^\circ\,θ∘ to the horizontal, where θ \theta\,θ is acute. P P\,P lands after 3 seconds. Give non-exact numerical answers to 2 significant figures.
Find value of θ\thetaθ.
Find the horizontal distance travelled by P P\,P before it lands on the ground.
Hence find the maximum height reached by PPP.
