Range x = 1740 cos 43.7 x T gives distance in meters. Divide by 1000 for km.
T=2 (1740m/s) Sin 43.7/9.8m/s gives total time in seconds. Divide by 60 for minutes.
The vertical factor of velocity is sine (seventy 3.8°). The horizontal factor of velocity is cosine (seventy 3.8°) Ke = Pe, mgh = ½mv² , gh = ½v², h = v²/2g the optimal altitude is = [[sine (seventy 3.8°)×a million,570m/s]² ÷ 2 × 9.8m/s² s = ½at² , t = ?(2s/a) using the optimal altitude, the time of flight is = ?[ 2 × (max top)/9.8m/s²] × 2 Distance = velocity × time the area traveled horizontally is t (from above) × cosine (seventy 3.8°) × a million,570 m/s
t = 2*V*sinΘ/g sec
R = V²*sin(2Θ)/g meters
