How wind force affect projectile velocity?

what is the equation of projectile motion velocity x & y with wind force effect?

Expert Solution

The force of gravity caused our projectile to move in an arc on the screen. Wind, on the other hand, can be considered a constant acceleration in the X direction (assuming it is simply blowing left or right with no up or down-drafts). A wind blowing to the left would be a negative X acceleration, and wind blowing to the right would be a positive X acceleration.

The wind can have a powerful affect on the velocity and trajectory of a projectile. Consider the following illustration of a paper airplane in flight:

projectile motion with wind force derive the math model adding in a wind force function, w(t), acting on the projectile during its trajectory. Considering an arbitrary w(t) that can be defined by the user, Solve for the velocities using analytical methods and integrate the velocity functions to obtain the position functions. Parameters to consider include projectile mass, gravity, initial launch velocity, angle and Wind force

Which ONE of the following statements regarding Projectile Motion is FALSE? An increase in projection velocity using a Golf Club will increase the distance traveled of the projectile. Increasing the projection angle from 45o to 75o will decrease the distance traveled of the projectile. Two forces that influence a projectile are Gravity and Air Resistance. An increase in projection height will increase the distance traveled of the projectile. The velocity of the projectile is at its maximum at the apex...

Suppose that the distribution of wind velocity, X, is described by the probability density function f(x) = (x/σ^2)e^-(x^2/ 2(σ^2)) , x ≥ 0. Suppose that for the distribution of wind velocity in Newcastle, measured in km/hr, σ^2 = 100. (a) In task 1, you showed that the quantile function for this distribution is given by: Q(p) = σ (−2 ln(1 − p))^(1/2), 0 ≤ p < 1 Use this quantile function to generate 100,000 random values from this distribution (when...

find an equation for the range (defined as the x displacement of the projectile when it reaches y = 0) for a cannon firing from y = 0. Leave everything as variables, such as vi for the initial velocity, and θ for the launch angle. After you are confident in your equation you must be able to predict where the projectile will land on the first try. Write out an equation that gives the horizontal position of the object as...
