A projectile is launched at time t = 0 with the initial conditions shown in the figure.

Question:

A projectile is launched at time t = 0 with the initial conditions shown in the figure. If the wind imparts a constant leftward acceleration of 5 m/s2, plot the n- and t-components of acceleration and the radius of curvature ρ of the trajectory for the time the projectile is in the air. State the maximum magnitude of each acceleration component along with the time at which it occurs. Additionally, determine the minimum radius of curvature for the trajectory and its corresponding time.
