Explore the interactive simulation of projectile motion, learning about kinematics and air resistance factors.
Using the Interactive. The Projectile Simulator Interactive is shown in the iFrame below. There is a small hot-spot in the lower-right corner of the iFrame. Dragging this hot-spot allows you to change the size of iFrame to whatever dimensions you prefer.
Projectile Motion - PhET Interactive Simulations
Using this simulation, students can explore various types of projectile motion. Four projectiles are launched over level ground at angles of 20, 30, 45, and 60 degrees. You have the option of setting them all to have the same horizontal range, the same maximum height, or the same initial velocity.
The simulation plots x displacement agaisnt y displacement over time. Interact with the simulation, change settings & explore the calculations below! Display Trajectories
This simulation simulates motion of projectile fired at ground level. You can change angle, initial speed, and mass of projectile and see the resulting path. If you want to consider the air resistance please enter the diameter of projectile.
