Math Problem Statement
A projectile of mass 0.741 kg is shot from a cannon. The end of the cannon’s barrel is at height 7.1 m, as shown in the figure. The initial velocity of the projectile is 11 m/s. The projectile rises to a maximum height of ∆y above the end of the cannon’s barrel and strikes the ground a horizontal distance ∆x past the end of the cannon’s barrel.Find the range ∆x of the projectile. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s Answer in units of m.

Formulas
v_{0x} = v_0 \cos \theta
v_{0y} = v_0 \sin \theta
y = y_0 + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2
∆x = v_{0x} * t
