A typical problem encountered in the study of dynamics is the trajectory problem. In the situation illustrated below, a projectile is fired from the edge of a cliff with an initial velocity, Vo, and a firing angle, A. The cliff has a height, h. It is desired to 1. 2. 3. 4. determine the distance, xt, to the target determine the highest elevation reached, ymax determine the time to reach the target, t, generate a table of (x,y) points to use in plotting the trajectory Max Background: If Vo-initial velocity and A-firing angle (in degrees), then Vxo initial horizontal velocity Vocos(A) Vyo initial vertical velocity- Vosin(A) Ifg--9.81 m/s2acceleration due to gravity, then solving for t in the quadratic equation (the positive root) will give the time to reach the target, t i.e., t). Using this value of tt, the distance to the target 1S and the maximum height reached is
