Students will learn how to use the equations of motion in two dimensions in order to solve problems for projectiles. It is necessary to understand how to break a vector into its x and y components.
An example of projectile motion that uses an amusing real-world situation.
Projectile motion Problem solving. Requires use of algebra and the three basic equations to solve for an unknown.
A list of student-submitted discussion questions for Projectile Motion Problem Solving.
A review of the terms distance, displacement, velocity, speed, and acceleration. Also looks at graphs of motion, using the kinematic equations, projectile motion, and free fall.
