With what velocity and in what time would a body reach the moonfalling from a distance of 10,800 miles above the surface, the attractionof the earth being neglected? 153. The Motion of a Projectile. Problem 1. A particle is projected from a fixed point O on the earthssurface, with a velocity v0, in a direction that makes an angle 4> with thehorizontal. Determine the motion, neglecting the resistance of the 216 INTEGRAL CALCULUS §153 Solution. The particle will of course remain in the same vertical planethroughout its flight; it will rise for a time, and will finally be broughtback to the earth by the action of gravitation. Let 0 be the origin and let the axes be the horizontal and ver-tical lines through 0 that He in thevertical plane. Let P, with the co-ordinates x and y, be the particlesposition t units of time after the be-ginning of the flight. If gravitationdid not act, the body would move ina straight line with the constant ve-locity v0, and the horizontal and ver-tical components of the velocity at any time t would have respectively theconstant values v0 cos and vQ sin 4>. But gravitation engenders a velocitycomponent downward of gt. Hence the velocity components of the par-ticle at P are ri\ dx dy • , .
