Question
Part A Find the time tH it takes the projectile to reach its maximum height H. Express tH in terms of v0, ?, and g (the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity).
Part B Find tR, the time at which the projectile hits the ground after having traveled through a horizontal distance R. Express the time in terms of v0, ?, and g.
Part C Find H, the maximum height attained by the projectile. Express your answer in terms of v0, ?, and g.
Part D Find the total distance R (often called the range) traveled in the x direction; see the figure in the problem introduction. Express the range in terms of v0, ?, and g.
Explanation / Answer
A)
TH = [ Vo sin ] / g
B)
TR = 2*[ Vo sin ] / g
C)
H = [ Vo sin ] ² /(2g)
D)
R = ( Vo² /g)sin 2
