The problem does not seem to be comprehensible. what is the meaning of "average" angle with what? One has to make some assumptions but then it means the problem is not worded properly or after reading the problem OP is writing the problem in his personal script.dritt said:Homework Statement
A projectile is launched:
Horizontally, with an average displacement of 49 cm
Vertically, with an average displacement of 28 cm
At a 23 degree angle, with average displacement of 126 cm

I am sad to say I don't know how to do it. Walk me through?
The title indicates it is the launch velocity.kuruman said:a statement of what you are asked to find
In all three it refers to "average displacement" and states a distance, but it baffles me what this means.Let'sthink said:what is the meaning of "average" angle
The formula for calculating a projectile's initial velocity without time is V0 = (Vf^2 - 2gh)^1/2, where V0 is the initial velocity, Vf is the final velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the projectile.
The initial velocity of a projectile without time is directly related to its trajectory. A higher initial velocity will result in a longer and flatter trajectory, while a lower initial velocity will result in a shorter and steeper trajectory.
The initial velocity of a projectile without time is influenced by the height from which the projectile is launched, the angle at which it is launched, and any external forces acting on the projectile such as air resistance or wind.
Yes, the initial velocity of a projectile can be negative if it is launched downwards or in the opposite direction of its intended trajectory. This would result in a negative value for V0 in the formula.
Changing the initial velocity of a projectile will affect both its maximum height and range. A higher initial velocity will result in a higher maximum height and a longer range, while a lower initial velocity will result in a lower maximum height and a shorter range.
