I need help with the problem below. I have no clue how to solve it. I need help as soon as possible. Please help me
Build an algorithm in Matlab, through which you draw the trajectory of a body, thrown from height h0 (given in input), with initial velocity v0x = 10 m / s. After how long does the body reach the ground (tmax)? What is the horizontal displacement of the xmax body? The acceleration of free fall is g = 9.8 m / s2.

In general:
  1. Compute the time to fall from h0 =(1/2) * a * tmax^2
  2. Compute the distance from xmax = v0x * tmax
See my attached projectile demo. It gives you control over every parameter and computes practically everything you could possibly ever want to know about the projectile (velocities, distances, etc.). Below is some of what it tells you:
Just enter in the parameters in the dialog box when it asks you for them.
