TRUE or FALSE The horizontal distance, in feet, traveled by a projectile can be modeled by the equation.. h = ((v0^2)/16) sinθcosθ ..where θ is the initial angle and v0 is the initial velocity. This simplifies to h = ((v0^2)/32) sin(2θ) .

Answer:

The given statement is:

TRUE.

( i.e.
h=(v_0^2)/(32)* \sin 2\theta )

Explanation:

We are given the horizontal distance, in feet, traveled by a projectile can be modeled by the equation.


h=(v_0^2)/(16)* \sin\theta \cos\theta

now we multiply and divide by 2 (i.e. the same quantity is multiplied in the numerator and the denominator) to get:


h=(v_0^2)/(16* 2)* 2* \sin\theta \cos\theta

We know that:


2\sin\theta \cos\theta=\sin 2\theta

Hence, we get:


h=(v_0^2)/(32)* \sin 2\theta

Hence, the given statement is TRUE statement.
