Projectile Motion Formula Explained

The document discusses projectile motion formulas. The first formula describes the velocity along the x and y axes at time t, where Vx and Vy are the velocities, Vxo and Vyo are the initial velocities, g is gravity, and t is time. The second formula breaks down the initial velocity Vo into its components along the y and x axes using sine and cosine of the launch angle θ. Projectile motion formulas are used to calculate distance, velocity, and time in trajectories.

Projectile Motion Formula (trajectory formula) is articulated as

Where,
the velocity along the x-axis is Vx ,
the initial velocity along the x-axis is Vxo ,
the velocity along the y-axis is Vy ,
the initial velocity along the y-axis is Vyo .
acceleration due to gravity is g, and
the time taken is t

Equations associated to the trajectory motion (projectile motion)


are articulated as,
Where,
the initial Velocity is Vo ,
the component along the y-axis is
sin θ,
the component along the x-axis is
cos θ.

Projectile Motion formula is made use of to calculate the distance,


velocity and time engaged in the projectile motion.
