where distances are measured in feet.
a. Plot the graph of the flight of the cannonball.
b. Find the height of the cannonball 3000 feet downrange.
c. By looking at the graph of h, determine whether dh dx is positive or negative at 3000 feet downrange.
d. Calculate dh dx at 3000 feet downrange and explain what this number means in practical terms.
