In this rocket launch worksheet, students solve 3 problems about the Ares 1X rocket and its launch, trajectory, and motion in both the vertical and horizontal direction.

Students model projectile motion algebraically and graphically; and make predictions based on the quadratic algebraic model.

Students study straight line motion and motion due to gravity.  In this motion lesson plan students analyze several experiments. 

Students must predict the pre-collision speed of a ball that has been captured by a ballistic pendulum.
