Alter entering me program, you can solve projectile problems by entering
the values tor» and v into the data memories and running the program to
compute the unknown values
For example, a projectile is launched at angle (d) ol 45° with a starting
velocity ol 20 meters per second. Determine the length ot time In the air.
