Question
A projectile is fired at an angle θ and reaches maximum
height H and range R. The angle between velocity and acceleration at the highest point is:Solution
At the highest point of a projectile’s motion:
- The velocity is purely horizontal, since the vertical component becomes zero.
- The acceleration due to gravity is always vertically downward.
- Velocity vector → horizontal
- Acceleration vector → vertical (downward)
