Time formula when two projectile are projected horizantally with different velocities

Answer»

Explanation:

 Component of velocity ALONG the x-axis at any instant t.

vx=ux + axt

=u + 0

vx=u

This means that the horizontal component of velocity does not change throughout the projectile motion.

Component of velocity along the y-axis at any instant t.

vy=uy + ayt

=0 + gt

vy=gt

The displacement along x-axis at any instant t

x=uxt + (1/2) axt2

x=uxt + 0

x=u t

4. The displacement along y-axis at any instant t

y= uyt + (1/2) ayt2

y= 0 + (1/2) ayt2

y=1/2gt2

Equation of a trajectory(PATH of a projectile)

We KNOW at any instant x = ut 

t=x/u

Also, y= (1/2)gt2

Subsituting for t we get

y= (1/2)g(x/u)2

y= (1/2)(g/u2)x2
