take the equation of the trajectory found in iii you now know the y is 6, you can find x
thanks for your reply s. i understand the maths involved. the problem is i dont understand WHY i am doing this. i simply cannot understand why substituting y=6 into the equation gives me the new position anyone care to explain? thanks
