Learning Goal: To understand how to apply the equations for one-dimensional motion to the x and y directions separately in order to derive standard formulas for the range and height of a projectile. A projectile is fired from ground level at time T=0 , at an angle THETA with respect to the horizontal. It has an initial speed VO . In this problem we are assuming that the ground is level.A) Find the time th it takes the projectile to reach its maximum height h.Express in terms of vnot ,theta , and g (the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity).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 vnot ,theta , and g .C) Find h, the maximum height attained by the projectile.Express your answer in terms of vnot, theta, and g .D).Find the total distance D (often called the range) traveled in the x direction; see the figure in the problem introduction.
