Projectile Motion Examples & Calculations

The document discusses projectile motion with three examples. The first example calculates the height and vertical velocity of a ball thrown at 10 m/s for 5 seconds. The second example finds the maximum height, horizontal displacement, and time of a ball kicked at 10 m/s at a 53 degree angle. The third example solves for the same values of a cannonball fired at a 53 degree angle.

direction with an initial velocity 10m/s. Time elapsed during the motion is 5s, calculate the height
that object is thrown and Vy component of the velocity after it hits the ground.

Example John kicks the ball and ball does projectile motion with an angle of 53 to horizontal. Its
initial velocity is 10 m/s, find the maximum height it can reach, horizontal displacement and total
time required for this motion. (sin53=0, 8 and cos53=0, 6)

Example In the given picture you see the motion path of cannonball. Find the maximum height it
can reach, horizontal distance it covers and total time from the given information. (The angle
between cannonball and horizontal is 53 and sin53=0, 8 and cos53=0, 6)
