Launch Angle (degrees) 45°

Initial Velocity (m/s) 50 m/s

Initial Height (m) 0 m

A projectile follows a parabolic path under constant gravity. The motion can be analyzed separately in x and y directions.

x = v₀·cos(θ)·t

y = y₀ + v₀·sin(θ)·t - ½gt²

Time of flight: T = (v₀sin(θ) + √((v₀sin(θ))² + 2gy₀))/g

Maximum height: H = y₀ + (v₀²sin²(θ))/(2g)

Range: R = (v₀²sin(2θ))/g (for launch from ground)
