a.
Answer to Problem 75E
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Consider the path of a projectile projected horizontally with a velocity of
In this model (in which air resistance is disregarded),
A ball is thrown from the top of a
Find the equation of the parabolic path.
Calculation:
A ball is thrown from the top of a
Now the equation of the parabolic path is,
Put the values in equation,
Hence, the equation of the parabolic path is,
