Projectile motion problems can easily become algebra problems that focus on identifying the right number in a diagram and substituting it into the correct equation.

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

Season 2 Episode 405 | 30m 1s Projectile Motion: The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Students learn to describe horizontal and vertical components of a projectile’s motion.

The key to projectile motion is to realize that the horizontal and vertical motions are independent of each other (except for the time each motion takes). This essentially makes a 2-d problem, 2 1 ...

Projectile motion is like two 1-d kinematics problems that only have the time in common. The acceleration in the vertical direction is - g and the horizontal acceleration is zero.
