The correct answer is: $5 \mathrm{m}$ and $6 \mathrm{m}$
(a) Given, $v=(3 i+10 j) m / s$
$\Rightarrow \quad v_{x}=3$ and $v_{y}=10$
$\therefore$ Maximum height attained, $H=\frac{v_{y}^{2}}{2 g}$
$$
\begin{aligned}
&=\frac{10 \times 10}{2 \times 10}=5 \mathrm{m} \\
\text { Range }=v_{x} \times T=V_{x} \times \frac{2 v_{y}}{g} &=\frac{3 \times 2 \times 10}{10}=6 \mathrm{m}
\end{aligned}
$$
