Projectile Motion is the free fall motion Solution:
of any body in a horizontal path with Vi = 20 m/s θ = 50°
constant velocity.
a. H = Vo2sin2θ/2g
= (20m/s)2 sin(50°)2/(2×9.8m/s2)
= 11.97 m
b. t = 2V0 sin θ / g
= 2 × 20m/s × sin(50°) / 9.8 m/s2
= 3.126 s
c. R = v02sin2θ/g
= 20m/s2 sin(100°) / 9.8 m/s2
= 40.196 m
