Blast a car out of a cannon, and challenge yourself to hit a target! Learn about projectile motion by firing various objects. Set parameters such as angle, initial speed, and mass. Explore vector representations, and add air resistance to investigate the factors that influence drag.
Explore the interactive simulation of projectile motion, learning about kinematics and air resistance factors.
This collection of interactive simulations allow learners of Physics to explore core physics concepts by altering variables and observing the results. This section contains nearly 100 simulations and the numbers continue to grow.
This online quiz is intended to give you extra practice in performing a variety of kinematics calculations involving projectile motion, such as determining total distance, total time, and maximum height on flat surfaces as well as from elevated surfaces.
Projectile Motion: Practice Problems with Solutions Physexams.com 1. A missile is shot horizontally from the top of a 500m cliff with an initial speed of 300m/s (a) Find the time it takes for the missile to hit the ground. (b) What is the range of the missile? (c) Calculate the velocity of the missile just before it hits the ground.
Projectile Motion - PhET Interactive Simulations
This projectile simulator allows students to alter the launch speed, launch height and launch angle of a projectile. The trajectory, range, and time of fight are displayed. The velocity vector components, acceleration vector, and the trajectory trace can be toggled off and on.
