To solve the problem, we need to determine whether a bullet fired at an angle of 15 degrees can hit a target located 7 km away by adjusting its angle of projection. We will use the physics of projectile motion to find the maximum range achievable by the bullet. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: - A bullet is fired at an angle of \(15^\circ\) and hits the ground 3 km away. - We need to find out if it can hit a target at a distance of 7 km by adjusting the angle of projection. ...
