The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Projectile Motion: The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Students learn to describe horizontal and vertical components of a projectile ...

In this video, we dive into how to solve projectile motion problems using the quadratic formula! From calculating the height and distance to finding the time of flight, we’ll show you how to apply the ...

College football season is coming to an end (I guess technically, the season is over - it is bowl season). Anyway, this is something I wanted to do a long time ago, but I kept getting side tracked. If ...

Here is a great question from a reader (rephrased a bit): I have in my possession a device from Noah Basketball and it measures the approach angle of a basketball at the rim using a video camera. *The ...

In this video, we introduce the fundamentals of kinematics in 2D, focusing on projectile motion. Learn how to break down the horizontal and vertical components of motion, apply key equations, and ...

I wish Angry Birds had been around when I was teaching high school physics. Please don’t think of the game as a hate crime against hogs, or an avian anger management program—instead, think of it as a ...

Revise: Projectile motion Projectile motion Projectiles and satellites move in curved paths due to the effects of gravitational force. By considering motion in horizontal and vertical directions, we ...
