Ball launched horizontally off a cliff

An example figure from the Projectile Motion Generator.

A ball launched horizontally off the top of a cliff with velocity v_0, drawn again at four equal time steps along its dashed path, with g down and the cliff’s height h and range R marked — A ball launched horizontally from the top corner of a cliff, with its launch velocity v_0 and the acceleration due to gravity g pointing down. The ball is drawn again at four equal time steps along its dashed path, the last where it lands: evenly spaced across, but farther apart each step down. The cliff’s height h and the range R are marked.
