Homework Statement
A projectile with initial velocity u making an angle A with the horizontal. Find the time t when the velocity of the projectile becomes perpendicular to its original velocity.
Homework Equations
v = u + at
s = ut + 1/2at^2
v^2 - u^2 = 2as[/B]
The Attempt at a Solution
I have an intuitive idea of how to solve it. When the velocity becomes perpendicular to the original velocity, their dot product will be zero. I don't know if this is the right way. If this the right way, I don't know how to solve for it.
