Master the fundamental techniques of classical mechanics to analyze and solve projectile motion problems with confidence. In this video, we break down key concepts such as kinematics, velocity, ...

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 ...

Explore the physics behind 2D projectile motion under linear drag forces in this detailed tutorial! In this video, we break down how air resistance affects projectile trajectories, compare motion with ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Anyone who's ever taken a physics course has learned the same myth for centuries now: that any object thrown, shot, or fired in the gravitational field of Earth will trace out a parabola before ...
