Suppose that a shot putter can put a shot at the world-class speed v0 = 15.00 m/s and at a height of 2.160 m. What horizontal distance would the shot travel if the launch angle θ0 is?

(a) 45.00^o and

(b) 42.00^o? The answers indicate that the angle of 45^o, which maximizes the range of projectile motion, does not maximize the horizontal distance when the launch and landing are at different heights.
