Today for school, I learned how to calculate the horizontal displacement of a projectile of a projectile launched at an angle. You can use trigonometry to calculate the vertical displacement. Use that information to calculate how long was the projectile in the air. Once you know how long will the projectile be in the air, use trigonometry again to calculate the horizontal velocity of the projectile. Once you know how long the projectile will be in the air, multiply it by the horizontal velocity. That is how to calculate how far will a projectile go if it is fired from an angle.

  1. Hi, Josh. I will be putting my comments here, so the people reviewing your portfolio can see our school feedback system. Don't worry, I will make sure nobody else can see this blog: just you and me and the portfolio reviewers.

    For your posts, it will help us to understand better what's going on if you include your own screenshot images or screencap videos in the post.

    Besides, blog posts with nothing but text are boring.
