Question

Path of the projectile is given by: $y = x \tan\theta - \frac{gx^2}{2y^2 \cos^2\theta}$

          Path of the projectile is given by:
$y = x \tan\theta - \frac{gx^2}{2y^2 \cos^2\theta}$

Path of the projectile is given by:
y = x tanθ - (gx^2)/(2y^2 cos^2θ)

Step 1

First, we need to calculate the time of flight of the projectile. The time of flight can be calculated using the formula: t = (2 * vo * sin(theta)) / g where vo is the initial velocity, theta is the initial angle, and g is the gravitational Show more…

Thanks for your feedback!

The initial velocity of the projectile (vo) is 20 m/s. The initial angle of the projectile is 50 degrees. Gravitational acceleration (g) is 9.81 m/s^2. Using the software LabVIEW: Using an array constant on the block diagram, plot the path of the projectile on a waveform graph from 0 to 40 meters in 5-meter intervals. The path of the projectile is given by: gx^2 y = xtan(0) - 2y^2cos(20)
