THE EFFECT OF CONSTANT NORMAL ACCELERATION ON THE VACUUM RANGE OF A BOMB.

Abstract

The range of a bomb whose only accelerations are gravity, g, and a constant acceleration kg normal to the trajectory, initially down, is shown as a function of the ordinary vacuum range (k = O), the ratio of the velocities at impact and release, and the parameter k. (Author)
