Greetings folks!
Consider the usual projectile motion problem in the vertical xy-plane=
.
A projectile is launched with speed v0 at an angle theta from the
origin.
If the variable theta is swept from 0 to 90 degrees what part of the
xy-plane will be covered by the projectile? What is the equation of =
the
boundry of this area? I would also like to see a 3-D plot in which
z-axis would represent the probability of the projectile passing thou=
gh
a point (x,y). I believe it will peak at the origin.
Is this worked out somewhere? I am trying to solve it but the equati=
ons
are getting messier. I am stil trying though.
