Horizontal Launch

All the parameters of a horizontal launch can be calculated with the motion equations, assuming a downward acceleration of gravity of 9.8 m/s2.

Time of flight
t = s
Vertical impact velocity
vy = m/s
Launch velocity
v0 = m/s
Height of launch
h = m
Horizontal range
R = m

Calculation is initiated by clicking on the formula in the illustration for the quantity you wish to calculate.
