A 2 kg cannonball initially at rest is launched with a constant explosive force of 40,000 N for a short interval of time of 0.005 seconds. The cannonball is angled to fire at a 20-degree angle. Calculate the maximum height of the cannonball. Assume that air resistance is negligible, the cannonball leaves the cannon from a height of zero meters, and the force due to gravity when the cannonball is launched is negligible.
