Question

Determine the acceleration due to gravity from the following data of an oblique projectile.
x = 8t - 5t²(x and t are in SI unit)

Open in App

Solution

Dear Student ,
We know that the vertical position of a projectile can be written as , $x = u t - \frac{1}{2} g t^{2}$ where u is initial velocity and g=acceleration due to gravity .
$N o w, \frac{1}{2} g t^{2} = 5 t^{2} \Rightarrow g = 10 m / s^{2}$
