15.6 m
Explanation:
See this URL https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion
Equation for the peak height is
H =
This is derived using the fundamental equations of motion and the assumption that the trajectory is parabolic. The objects vertical velocity at the peak height is zero m/s.
v = 35 m/s
Theta =30 degrees
g=9.8m/s^2 Gravitational acceleration
