Define projectile particle and derive the equation $y\, = \,(\tan \,{\theta _0})x\, - \,\frac{g}{{(2\,\cos \,{\theta _0})}}{x^2}$
When an object is thrown in gravitational field of the Earth, it moves with constant horizontal velocity and constant vertical acceleration. Such a two dimensional motion is called a projectile motion and such an object is called a projectile.
Let the distance travelled by the object at time ' $\mathrm{t}$ ' using with $v_{\mathrm{o}}$ given by $x=\left(v_{0} \cos \theta_{0}\right) t$
Let the distance travelled by the projectile along the y direction be given by
$y=\left(v_{0} \sin \theta_{0}\right) t-1 / 2 g t^{2}$
From $(1)$ $\mathrm{t}=\frac{x}{v_{o} \cos \theta_{o}}$
Putting $\mathrm{t}$ value in $\mathrm{y}$ we get
$y=\left(v_{0} \sin \theta_{0}\right)\left(\frac{x}{v_{o} \cos \theta_{o}}\right)-\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~g}\left(\frac{x}{v_{o} \cos \theta_{o}}\right)$
$y=x \tan \theta_{o}-\frac{1}{2} \frac{g}{\left(v_{o} \cos \theta_{o}\right)^{2}} \cdot x^{2}$
A stone is projected with a velocity $20 \sqrt{2}\,m / s$ at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal. The average velocity of stone during its motion from starting point to its maximum height is $..........\,m/s$ (take $g=10\,m / s ^2$ )
The velocity at the maximum height of a projectile is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ times its initial velocity of projection $(u)$. Its range on the horizontal plane is .............
A piece of marble is projected from earth's surface with velocity of $19.6 \sqrt{2}\,m / s$ at $45^{\circ}.$ $2\,s$ later its velocity makes an angle $\alpha$ with horizontal, where $\alpha$ is $..........$
A cart is moving horizontally along a straight line with a constant speed of $30\,m / s$. A projectile is to be fired from the moving cart in such a way that it will retum to the cart (at the same point on cart) after the cart has moved $80\,m$. At what velocity (relative to the cart) must be projectile be fired? (Take $=10\,m / s ^2$ )
Aball is thrown from a point on ground at some angle of projection. At the same time a bird starts from a point directly above this point of projection at a height $h$ horizontally with speed $u$. Given that in its flight ball just touches the bird at one point. Find the distance on ground where ball strikes
