To find the minimum radius of curvature of the trajectory described by a projectile projected at an angle of \(60^\circ\) with a speed of \(10 \, \text{m/s}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the initial velocity components The initial velocity \(U\) can be broken down into horizontal and vertical components using trigonometric functions: - Horizontal component: \[ U_x = U \cos \alpha = 10 \cos 60^\circ = 10 \times \frac{1}{2} = 5 \, \text{m/s} \] ...
