Question #163268

What is maximum height in projectile motion.


Expert's answer

The maximum height of the projectile is the height at which the vertical velocity of the projectile becomes zero. The maximum height of the projectile can be found as follows:


ymax=v02sin2θ2g,y_{max}=\dfrac{v_0^2sin^2\theta}{2g},

here, v0v_0 is the initial velocity of the projectile, θ\theta is the launch angle and gg is the acceleration due to gravity.
