\( y_h \;=\; \dfrac{ d \cdot v_{0y} }{ v_{0x} } - \left( \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot \dfrac{ x^2}{v_{0x}^2 } \right) \) | ||
Symbol | English | Metric |
\( y_h \) = vertical position | \( ft \) | \( m \) |
\( d \) = horizontal position | \( ft \) | \( m \) |
\( v_0 \) = launch velocity | \(ft\;/\;sec\) | \(m\;/\;s\) |
\( g \) = gravitational acceleration | \(ft\;/\;sec^2\) | \(m\;/\;s^2\) |
\( \theta \) = angle of the initial vertical from x-axis | \( deg \) | \( rad \) |
