Trajectory and Range of a Projectile

Give every type of learner in your physics class an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned throughout the year. From analyzing tables and graphs, to evaluating diagrams and solving problems, there is an outstanding variety of...

Introduce your young scholars to the concepts of circular motion, projectile motion, angular speed, simple harmonic motion, torque, center of mass, centripetal force, and Hooke's Law with a 86-slide presentation. The circular motion...

Angry Birds prepared them, but now pupils must prove their skills with projectiles! Scholars test different variables to determine which ones impact the distance the projectile flies. The experiment provides connections to kinetic and...

A unique and useful presentation, this covers projectile motion for your general physics class. Many graphs display the vectors involved, and some even act as animations. Motion is broken down into its components and only then are the...

Scroll down to Lesson 2 for a complete tutorial on projectile motion. Content covered in these tutorials includes an explanation of what a projectile is, what the characteristics of a projectile's trajectory are, horizontal and vertical...

This illustrated tutorial discusses the horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's motion; specific attention will be given to the presence/absence of forces, accelerations, and velocity.

Students can imagine a cannonball launched at three different launch angles where the speed is held constant; only the angle is changed. The cannonballs do not encounter a significant amount of air resistance. How will the trajectories...

The following interactive helps students understan how to identify and xplain the properties of a projectile, such as acceleration due to gravity, range, maximum height, and trajectory. They will determine the location and velocity of a...

Seven pages with 33 multiple choice questions about motion make up this worksheet. Calculations must be performed in order to choose the correct answer. Physics majors will solve for angles, displacement, acceleration, speed, and time...

By the end of this section, you will be able to identify and explain the properties of a projectile, such as acceleration due to gravity, range, maximum height, and trajectory; determine the location and velocity of a projectile at...
