Projectile from a Building: When and Where Does It Land?

This visualization shows the projectile motion of a ball thrown from a 50 m tall building with an initial speed and launch angle. The parabolic trajectory is drawn in standard x–y coordinates (x horizontal, y vertical). You can adjust the initial speed, launch angle, gravity, and the starting height of the building. The point where the curve meets the ground (y = 0) is highlighted as the impact point, which corresponds to the time and horizontal distance at which the ball hits the ground.
