| dc.description | A classic problem of the motion of a point mass (projectile) thrown at an angle to the horizon is reviewed. The air drag force is taken into account with the drag factor assumed to be constant. An analytic approach is mainly used for the investigation. Simple analytical formulas are used for the constructing the envelope of the family of the point mass trajectories. The equation of envelope is applied for the determination of the maximum range of flight. The motion of a baseball is presented as an example. | |
