Eq. is true only for constant acceleration and with at the initial time . Also, since , we can integrate to get our second equation: Assuming . I often write this as:
What if we dont know t ? We can eliminate it by solving the first equation for t and putting it into the second equation: Changing the order of the terms gives us: To use these equation, we first identify the known and unknown quantities . . :

Motion in two dimensions Motion in two dimensions like the motion of projectiles and satellites and the motion of charged particles in electric fields. Here we shall treat the motion in plane with constant acceleration and uniform circular motion. .
Motion in two dimensions with constant acceleration Assume that the magnitude and direction of the acceleration remain unchanged the motion. The position vector for a particle in two dimensions (x,y plane) can be written as: = + ( ) r t i x j y Where x, y and r change with tune as the particle moves the velocity of particle is given by:
Since the acceleration is constant then we can substitute t a v v x x x + = 0 v = + v a t 0 y y y This give Then .
Since our particle moves in two dimension x and y with constant acceleration then But Solve

Horizontal range and maximum height of a projectile The horizontal range R of the projectile is the horizontal distance the projectile has travelled when it returns to its initial height (the height at which it is launched). To find range h, let us put in eq. 1, and in eq. 2 .. 1 2 By substituting the time t in the above equation h . 90 or 45 . 3
Projectile Motion at Various Initial Angles 2 2 sin v Complementary values of the initial angle result in the same range The heights will be different The maximum range occurs at a projection angle of 45o = 0 R g

A- X can be found if t is known from the equation =0.384 s where is the time required to reach the top then T=0.768 s Therefore x= 7.94 m B- The maximum height reached is found using the value of
