Embedded Systems: Weapons

by Bradley Updyke

 

Submitted : Fall 2010


For this project I had to calculate the trajectory of a missile and an aircraft at a certain speed and whether or not the missile would intercept the aircraft before gravity took over the missile. I calculated this by using triangles, the knowledge of similar triangles, and the Pythagorean Theorem. After all my calculations I figured out that depending on the speed of the aircraft and how far away the missile is being shot from depends whether or not the missile will intercept the aircraft.
