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.
Understand the motion of projectiles and satellites by separating their motion into horizontal and vertical components for National 5 Physics.
One of the easiest ways to deal with 2D projectile motion is to just analyze the motion in each direction separately. In other words, we will use one set of equations to describe the horizontal motion of the lime, and another set of equations to describe the vertical motion of the lime.
Using the equations of motion to figure out things about falling objects. Created by Sal Khan.
Here we use kinematic equations and modify with initial conditions to generate a “toolbox” of equations with which to solve a classic three-part projectile motion problem. Now, let’s look at two examples of problems involving projectile motion.
Explore the interactive simulation of projectile motion, learning about kinematics and air resistance factors.
