Homework Statement
When I'm solving problems, I'm told that the time between the vertical and horizontal components are the same. So that means that I would have to use the same time when calculating for both the vertical and horizontal components right? But then there are times when i have to use the time i found from the vertical component and multiply it by 2 to find the time for the horizontal component to see how long it is in the air. That makes sense, so doesn't that mean that the time for both the x and y components won't be the same? Since you need to multiply one to find the other. This is for those "find the horizontal range" questions. This seems like an easy concept (which it probably is), but I'm just confused on whether i have to multiply it every time i do this type of question or to leave it after finding it :(
