A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle

Reference no: EM13535760

A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle of 38.3 ° above the horizontal. The water leaves the nozzle with a speed of 29.5 m/s. Assuming that the water behaves like a projectile, how far from a building should the fire hose be located to hit the highest possible fire?
