PRACTICE / Projectile range

The two components share one clock

A projectile starts and lands at the same height with initial components ux = 16 m/s and uy = 12 m/s.

Find its horizontal range.

Organize the givens & assumptions
  • ux = 16 m/s
  • uy = 12 m/s

g = 10 m/s²; uniform gravity, no drag and equal launch/landing heights.
