    What Are the Key Variables in Projectile Motion on Planet Exidor?

    Thanks for the help. It was stupid of me to think of ax instead of just thinking g the whole time. This clarified things a bunch, thanks!

    What Are the Key Variables in Projectile Motion on Planet Exidor?

    Homework Statement A physics student on PLanet Exidor throws a ball, and it follows hte parabolic trajectgory shown in the figure. The ball's position is shown at 1.00[s] intervals until t=3.00[s]. At t=1.00[s], the ball's velocity is v=(2.00i + 2.00j)[m/s]. a. Determine the ball's...
