Johnson's parabolic formula

ID: johnson-s-parabolic-formula

Johnson's parabolic formula is an empirical relationship used to describe the shape of a parabolic trajectory in the context of projectile motion. Specifically, it is often used to model the range of a projectile as a function of launch angle and initial velocity. The formula provides an approximation that is useful for engineering applications and helps predict the behavior of projectiles under ideal conditions, neglecting air resistance.
