  2. Projectile motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion

    Maximum height of projectile. The greatest height that the object will reach is known as the peak of the object's motion. The increase in height will last until =, that is, = ⁡ (). Time to reach the maximum height(h):

  3. Trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory

    To find the angle giving the maximum height for a given speed calculate the derivative of the maximum height = ⁡ / with respect to , that is = ⁡ ⁡ / which is zero when = / =. So the maximum height H m a x = v 2 2 g {\displaystyle H_{\mathrm {max} }={v^{2} \over 2g}} is obtained when the projectile is fired straight up.

  4. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    The path of this projectile launched from a height y 0 has a range d.. In physics, a projectile launched with specific initial conditions will have a range.It may be more predictable assuming a flat Earth with a uniform gravity field, and no air resistance.

  5. Projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile

    Maximum Height (): this is the maximum height attained by the projectile OR the maximum displacement on the vertical axis (y-axis) covered by the projectile. It is given as H = U 2 sin 2 ⁡ θ / 2 g {\displaystyle H=U^{2}\sin ^{2}\theta /2g} .

  6. Parabola of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola_of_safety

    Maximum height can be calculated by absolute value of in standard form of parabola. It is given as H = | c | = u 2 2 g {\displaystyle H=|c|={\frac {u^{2}}{2g}}} Range ( R {\displaystyle R} ) of the projectile can be calculated by the value of latus rectum of the parabola given shooting to the same level.

  7. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  8. External ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_ballistics

    Another feature of projectile design that has been identified as having an effect on the unwanted limit cycle yaw motion is the chamfer at the base of the projectile. At the very base, or heel of a projectile or bullet, there is a 0.25 to 0.50 mm (0.01 to 0.02 in) chamfer, or radius.

  9. Tsiolkovsky rocket equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation

    A rocket's required mass ratio as a function of effective exhaust velocity ratio. The classical rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is a mathematical equation that describes the motion of vehicles that follow the basic principle of a rocket: a device that can apply acceleration to itself using thrust by expelling part of its mass with high velocity and can thereby move due to the ...
