Chapter 3, Problem 3.8

(choose chapter or problem)

A projectile is launched from Earths surface at a certain initial velocity at an angle above the horizontal, reaching maximum height after time tmax. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity and angle from the surface of the Moon, where the acceleration of gravity is one-sixth that of Earth. Neglecting air resistance (on Earth) and variations in the acceleration of gravity with height, how long does it take the projectile on the Moon to reach its maximum height? (a) tmax (b) tmax/6 (c) !6tmax (d) 36tmax (e) 6tmax
