Solution

To solve this problem, we need to use the equations of motion. The maximum height (H) can be found using the formula:

H = (u^2 * sin^2(θ)) / (2 * g)

where:

  • u is the initial velocity (12 m/s),
  • θ is the angle of projection (50 degrees),
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2).

First, we need to convert the angle from degrees to radians because the trigonometric functions in most calculators use radians.

50 degrees = 50 * π / 180 = 0.8727 radians

Then, we substitute the values into the formula:

H = (12^2 * sin^2(0.8727)) / (2 * 9.8) H = (144 * 0.766) / 19.6 H = 110.304 / 19.6 H = 5.63 m

So, the maximum height reached by the ball is approximately 5.63 meters. However, this option is not available in the choices given. Please check the values or the choices again.
