Problem

A truck of height 4 m4\,\text{m} is moving away from a cannon with a constant speed of 10 m/s10\,\text{m/s} and is accelerating with 1 m/s21\,\text{m/s}^{2}. When the truck is 40 m40\,\text{m} away, a shell is fired at an angle of 45∘45^{\circ} with a speed of 40 m/s40\,\text{m/s}. Determine if the shell hits the top of the truck, or lands in front or behind it. Take g=10 m/s2g = 10\,\text{m/s}^{2}.
