Question: A projectile fired from the ground follows the trajectory given by where v 0 is the initial speed, is the angle of projection, g

A projectile fired from the ground follows the trajectory given by

y = tan 0 AV COS B) x 1n (1 cos kx

where v0 is the initial speed, θ is the angle of projection, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and k is the drag factor caused by air resistance. Using the power series representation

Vo cos 0,

verify that the trajectory can be rewritten as

y = tan 0 AV COS B) x 1n (1 cos kx Vo cos 0,
