A hunter aims directly at a target (on the same level) 120 m away. If the bullet leaves the gun at a speed of 250 m/s, by how much will it miss the target

The distance the bullet will miss the target is 1.13 m.

Explanation:

Given;

Initial velocity of the bullet = 250 m/s

Distance of the target = 120 m

Time of motion;

t = 120 / 250

t = 0.48 s

During this time the bullet is under the gravitational pull and the distance it will miss the target is given by;

Y = V₀y + ¹/₂gt²

where;

V₀y is the initial vertical velocity = 0

Y = 0+ ¹/₂gt²

Y = ¹/₂(9.8)(0.48)²

Y = 1.13 m

Therefore, the distance the bullet will miss the target is 1.13 m.

true is the correct answer
