Question: A camonball is fired from a gun with a muzzle velocity of 1 0 0 m s at an angle of 3 0 degrees above

A camonball is fired from a gun with a muzzle velocity of 100ms at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. The cannonball is in the air for 10 seconds and the resultant range is 867 meters. A second cannonball is fired from the gun with twice the muzzle velocity of 200ms at the same angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Which of the following statements is true about the time of flight and the range of the second cannonball?
10.A The second camonball is in the air the same amount of time and travels twice the distance of the first.
B The second cannonball is in the air four times as long and travels four times the distance of the first.
CO The second cannonball is in the air twice as long and travels twice the distance of the first.
DO The second cannonball is in the air twice as long and travels four times the distance of the first.
E The second cannonball is in the air twice as long and travels the same the distance of the first.
