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 ...

How do I calculate the trajectory of a projectile with air resistance? Calculating the trajectory of a projectile with air ...

I’ve started recreating many of my numerical model tutorials for introductory physics. In the beginning, I had students use spreadsheets to create models. Of course, spreadsheets aren’t very good for ...

As the name suggests, horizontal motion occurs when the object is thrown horizontally, meaning it starts with zero vertical velocity. The only force acting on the object is gravity, causing it to ...

Suppose you throw some object near the surface of the earth. If the only significant force on the object is the constant downward gravitational force, we call this "projectile motion." Yes, that ...
