Formula and methodology
Formula: t=(v sinθ+√((v sinθ)²+2gh))/g for landing at ground level.
The positive quadratic root includes both upward launch velocity and the added time from the launch height.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Initial speed — m/s; minimum 0; maximum 1000000
- Launch height — m; minimum 0; maximum 1000000000
- Launch angle — degrees; minimum -89.999999; maximum 89.999999
- Gravitational acceleration — m/s²; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 10000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Initial speed | 20 |
| Launch height | 10 |
| Launch angle | 45 |
| Gravitational acceleration | 9.80665 |
Flight time ≈3.472 s; horizontal distance ≈49.097 m.
Assumptions and limits
- Gravity is constant and downward; air resistance and terrain are ignored.
- Launch height is measured above the landing level.
- The angle is measured from horizontal and speed is nonnegative.
