Let us consider the upwards direction as positive and the downwards direction as negative.
Gravitational acceleration = g = -9.81 m/s2
Initial velocity of the projectile = V = 150 m/s
Angle of launch =
From the figure,
Sin = 3/5 = 0.6
Cos = 4/5 = 0.8
Initial horizontal velocity of the projectile = Vx =
VCos = (150)(0.8) =
120 m/s
Initial vertical velocity of the projectile = Vy =
VSin = (150)(0.6) =
90 m/s
Initial height of the point from where it is launched = H = 150 m
Time taken by the projectile to reach the ground = T
When the projectile lands on the ground the displacement of the projectile in the vertical direction is downwards therefore it is negative.
-H = VyT + gT2/2
-150 = (90)T + (-9.81)T2/2
4.905T2 - 90T - 150 = 0
T = 19.8864 sec or -1.538 sec
Time cannot be negative.
T = 19.8864 sec
There is no horizontal force on the projectile therefore the horizontal velocity of the projectile remains constant.
Horizontal displacement of the projectile = R
R = VxT
R = (120)(19.8864)
R = 2386.37 m
