An object experiencing free fall that also has horizontal motion.
What is a projectile?
The horizontal component of a projectile experiences this type of motion.
What is constant velocity?
- 10 m/s^2
What is the free fall acceleration?
the motion of a basketball when shot at a basket
What is parabolic motion
The path that projectiles follow when launched
What is a parabolic path?
This is the formula used to calculatte the horizontal component of a projectile's velocity.
What is vi cos theta?
This is the equation for finding the y-component of the initial velocity.
What is vi sin theta?
They type of motion experienced in the x-direction for any projectile.
What is constant velocity?
This is the shape of the path traced by an object dropped from a moving plane.
What is half of a parabola?
This is how we calculate the time up for a projectile
What is viy/10?
The type of motion experienced by a projectile in the y-direction.
What is accelerated motion?
This is the horizontal acceleration of a projectile.
What is zero?
2(time up)
What is the total time the object is in the air?
An object dropped from an airplane will experience motion in which direction(s)?
X and Y <or> horizontal and vertical
This is the formula we use to calculate the range of an object
What is dx = vx (t)
The way we calculate how high a projectile can go
What is d = vi(t) + 1/2 (g)(t)^2
