But Id like to know if there are other formulas that would allow me to find the values of theta that would allow the projectile to reach a certain target if the initial velocity is know. Or perhaps the velocity …

Mar 8, 2005 · The formula you are looking for is known as the projectile motion equation, which takes into account the initial velocity, angle of launch, and distance to the target.

Jun 16, 2009 · I would like to simply know what Δy=[(sin2θ)(Vi)]^2/2a represents.. The formula only requires the angle and the initial velocity (along with the usual a=9.8m/s^2), so what height does the …

May 29, 2009 · Calculating projectile motion with drag requires understanding that drag force varies with speed and affects the object's velocity. The drag force can be expressed with the formula F_drag = …

The overall goal is to write a Mathematica program that will compute the launch angle that will yield the greatest range with using [RandomInt] function, but I was having trouble with the physics. ...

Feb 28, 2018 · 1. Homework Statement I'm doing lab, and to start we have to find ΔX of a projectile launched an angle. The first step for us is to find time, and to make it easier our teacher …

Dec 15, 2023 · I was messing around with this Projectile Motion Simulator, and it does seem that adding the initial height to the equation above would yield the max height when such initial height is considered.

Nov 13, 2024 · Basically every projectile simulation I recall seeing shows the projectile that is under the influence of air drag to have a net decrease in total trip time. Here's one example from Wikipedia, …

Consider the system in the exact same manner as you would without wind resistance, and then draw a free body diagram and look at acceleration and forces on the projectile. The only thing that air adds …

Nov 22, 2017 · Some proofs which rely only on geometry in the velocity co-ordinate system (with axes parallel and perpendicular to the incline) are given in Angle Maximizing the Distance of a Projectile. …
