Homework Statement
How to prove the correlation between launch angle (<45°) and horizontal displacement.
Independent Variable:
- Horizontal distance
- Launch Angle
- Firing velocity [90 m/s]
2. (Useful Equations:)
I need help with the proof, perhaps something using the following equations:
x = (vi*cosθ)t
y = (vi*sinθ)t - 1/2(gt²)
With gravitational acceleration being 9.8 m/s².
Although I did not measure time (duration for each projectile), I assume this can be found using v = d/t.
This is a snippet of the data that I have collected:
