Find an expression for the time of flight, maximum height and horizontal range of a projectile fired at an
angle with the horizontal. When is horizontal range maximum?
Answers
Answer:
What is the expression when a projectile fired from an angle theta with the vertical direction find the maximum height time of flight horizontal range velocity of projectile at any time t?

My notes from “Projectiles 101”. These equations connect the variables of projectile motion, and may be useful to you.
At any time t, a projectile's horizontal and vertical displacement are, using V as initial velocity and θ as the angle relative to the horizontal:
x = VtCos θ
y = VtSinθ – ½gt^2
[If you really want to use an angle relative to the vertical, use (90° - θ) in the equations]
The velocities are the time derivatives of displacement:
Vx = VCosθ (note that Vx does not depend on t, so Vx is constant)
Vy = VSinθ – gt
The velocity at any time t will be √(Vx^2 + Vy^2)
At maximum height, Vy = 0 = VSinθ – gt
So at maximum height, t = (VSinθ)/g (this is half the total flight time)
The range R of a projectile launched at an angle θ with a velocity V is:
R = V^2 Sin2θ / g
The maximum height H is
H = V^2 Sin^2(θ) / 2g
These equations neglect air resistance, of course. Otherwise, they become considerably more complicated!
