Description

We offer the opportunity to model a projectile's trajectory in several cases: (1) the projectile returns to the ground at the same height as the initial launch height.

(2) the projectile returns to higher ground than the height at the initial launch height, and

(3) the projectile returns to lower ground than the height at the initial launch height. in all three cases we seek to determine how far down range the projectile can go for a common initial muzzle velocity and reach the specified altitudes.
