Revisiting Example 3.4, assume that the drag force in the x direction is proportional to the square of the x component of velocity, but that the ball’s trajectory is shallow enough to neglect the drag force in the y direction. Using this assumption, letting O be the initial position of the ball, and letting the ball’s initial velocity have a magnitude υ0 and form an angle θ0 with the x axis, determine an expression for the trajectory of the ball of the form y = y(x).
