SOLUTION: can someone show me how this is solved please. i didnt know how to type the V zero so i put V0 (dynamics) If there is no air resistance, a projectile fired at an angle θ

Question 104017: can someone show me how this is solved please.
i didnt know how to type the V zero so i put V0
(dynamics) If there is no air resistance, a projectile fired at an angle θ
above the horizontal with an initial velocity of V0 has a range R of
R=V0^2/g*sin2θ
A football is thrown with initial velocity of 15m/s at a angle of 40° above the horizontal. If g = 9.8 m/s^2, how far will the football travel?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
R=Vo^2/g*sin(2θ)
A football is thrown with initial velocity of 15m/s at a angle of 40° above the horizontal. If g = 9.8 m/s^2, how far will the football travel?
-------------
R = 15^2/[9.8sin(80)]
R = 225/9.65111..
R = 23.31... meters
