Projectile on an Incline (Upward Motion) Calculator
Calculate the key parameters for a projectile launched upward on an inclined plane.
The equations used are:
Time of Flight:
\[
t = \frac{2\,v_0\,\sin\left(\theta-\phi\right)}{g\,\cos\phi}
\]
Range along the Incline:
\[
R = \frac{2\,v_0^2\,\sin\left(\theta-\phi\right)\cos\theta}{g\,\cos^2\phi}
\]
Maximum Height above the Incline:
\[
H_{max} = \frac{v_0^2\,\sin^2\left(\theta-\phi\right)}{2\,g\,\cos\phi}
\]
* Enter initial velocity (m/s), launch angle (°), incline angle (°), and gravitational acceleration (m/s²). Ensure that the launch angle is greater than the incline angle.
Step 1: Enter Parameters
Example: 20 m/s
Example: 60° (from horizontal)
Example: 30° (angle of the incline)
Example: 9.81 m/s²
