100

This is the unit for velocity.

What is m/s?

100

This is the angle from the horizontal.

What is 71.6o?

100

This is the vertical velocity of the ball at its peak.

What is 0 m/s?

100

These graphs are demonstrating the motion of an object moving in this direction.

What is the vertical (y) direction?

100

The horizontal components of an object during projectile motion are separate and independent of this.

What is vertical components (gravity, vertical velocity, etc.)?

200

This is the unit for distance and displacement.

What is meters?

200

A biker travels 4 m/s East with wind pushing the biker 2 m/s South. This is how long it will take the biker to pedal 20 meters East.

What is 5 seconds?

200

A cannon shoots a ball forward going 200 m/s. This is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.

What is 0 m/s?

200

The graph is showing motion for a projectile moving in this direction.

What is the horizontal (x) direction?

200

This variable only affects vertical motion.

What is gravity?

300
This is the unit for acceleration.

What is m/s2?

300

This is the vertical component of this triangle in meters.

What is 10.8 meters?
300

A cannon shoots a ball forward going 200 m/s. This is how far the ball will be after 3.5 seconds.

What is 700 meters?
300

This is the acceleration of the object with this movement: 

What is 0 m/s2?

300

This is the vertical velocity of an object once it lands when launched at 60 m/s. 

What is -60 m/s?

400

A scalar quantity is something that only has this.

What is magnitude?

400

This is the missing angle of the triangle including direction.

What is 61o West of South?

400

A cannon shoots a ball forward going 200 m/s. This is the time it took for the ball to fall 3 meters to the ground.

What is 0.78 seconds?

400

This graph could show the movement of an object in which direction during projectile motion? 

What is Horizontal (x) Direction?

400

This is the final horizontal velocity of a ball launched at 120 m/s off of a 2 meter cliff.

What is 120 m/s?

500

These are the 2 components that a vector needs to have.

What are magnitude and direction?

500

This is the resultant vector in meters.

What is 16 meters 42o North of East?

500

A cannon shoots a ball forward going 200 m/s. This is the final vertical velocity of the ball if it fell 3 meters to the ground.

What is -7.7 m/s?

500

This is the behavior of the object based on this graph showing vertical motion:

What is an object in free fall starting with 0 vertical velocity (being shot straight forward)?

500

These are the 2 values that are negative when solving projectile motion problems.

What are vertical displacement and acceleration?
