Hi,

 

A projectile with mass=1 is traveling from origin vec3(0,0,0) with velocity vec3(a,b,c)

Does anybody know the formula to calculate where (point in 3D space) it will hit the ground (meaning y equals 0)?

 

Assuming there's no air resistance and we're on earth (g=9.8)

 

Thanks!

Thanks, the "Where will it land?" formula looks exactly like what I need.
