Motion in Two Dimension
4.0 Projectile thrown parallel to the horizontal
4.0 Projectile thrown parallel to the horizontal
Consider a projectile thrown from point $O$ with velocity $u$ parallel to the horizontal from a tower of height $h$.
Initial velocity is parallel to the $x-$ axis. So, initial vertical velocity is zero.
Horizontal motion | Vertical motion |
${\overrightarrow u _x} = + u$ | ${\overrightarrow u _y} = 0$ |
${\overrightarrow a _x} = 0$ | ${\overrightarrow a _y} = - g$ |
