Determine the exact position of a projectile

Projectile Motion Explained in Depth | Kinematics of Particles

September 10, 2024 by Anthony Fasano, P.E. Leave a Comment

In this article (and video above), we dive deep into the fascinating world of projectile motion and explore how to determine the exact position of a projectile at its maximum height. This question forms part of the Dynamics section in the FE exam. Join us as we break down the principles of kinematics and the fundamental concepts of projectile motion, including the independence of horizontal and vertical components when air resistance is negligible

Question:

A projectile is shot from ground level with an initial velocity of 22 m/s at an angle of 40°. Determine its (x,y) coordinate when it reaches its peak altitude. Neglect air resistance.
