Range =sf(1019color(white)(x)m)

sf(T=14.4color(white)(x)s)

Explanation:

To get the time of flight T use:

sf(v=u+at)

To get the time t to reach the maximum height, take vertical components of motion:

sf(0=vsintheta-"gt")

:.sf(t=(vsintheta)/g=(100sin45)/9.81=7.208color(white)(x)s)

Since the motion is symmetrical we can say that the total time of flight T will be given by:

sf(T=2t=2xx7.208=14.41color(white)(x)s)

To get the range use the horizontal component of velocity which is constant.

sf(s=vcosthetaxxt)

:.sf(s=100cos45xx14.41=1019color(white)(x)m)
