Physics 3 . Projectile Motion Objectives: Students will measure the maximum height H and the range R of a projectile motion. They will study the effect of the shooting angle on H and R. Material used: 4 rulers‚ track‚ metallic ball‚ landing track‚ A4 white paper‚ red carbon paper‚ timer + supply‚ gun + protractor. Theory: A projectile is an object upon which the only force acting is gravity. There are a variety of examples of projectiles: an object dropped from rest is a projectile (provided

Experimental Design: The purpose behind this experiment was to determine the initial velocity of a projectile. Projection motion consists of kinematics of motion in the x and y directions. With two dimension kinematics‚ there are the x and y components in any given velocity. In projectile

Investigating Projectile Motion Introduction Projectile motion is a type of motion that consists of horizontal and vertical motions which are independent from each other‚ known as vector components. For an object to be considered a projectile‚ it must not be self-propelled. Projectiles move horizontally at a constant velocity. However‚ they undergo uniform acceleration in the vertical direction‚ which is caused by gravity. An important aspect of projectile motion is that the time it takes

A projectile is any object that is given an initial velocity and follows a path determined by the effects of gravitational acceleration and air resistance. Projectile motion is the act of projecting an object into the air at an angle when a curved path is an object follows when thrown or propelled near the surface of the earth.For example: a thrown football‚ an object dropped from an airplane‚ or a bullet shot from a gun.Projectile motion may only be used to solve mechanics problems

is Projectile Motion. Projectile Motion is a special case of two-dimensional motion. Gravity is the only considered external force acting on it while an object is airborne. Projectile is the moving body in this kind of motion. It refers to any object thrown‚ launched or otherwise projected so that once released‚ if air resistance is neglected‚ its path is affected only by the Earth’s gravity. As fired at an angle‚ it is influenced by its horizontal inertia and vertical gravity. The projectile creates

Physics Assessment Task #1: Part A Open ended investigation By Rex Whiticker Projectile Motion Abstract: The Project motion of a catapult being fired is varied by a range of factors that affect the path of the projectile. In this experiment‚ the angle of trajectory‚ mass of the projectile and change in initial velocity of the launch‚ were all factors considered in the end result to investigate the properties of projectile motion. The purpose of the experiment was to conduct a first-hand investigation

Investigating Projectiles Background: A projectile is an entity which only has the force of gravity acting upon it. A projectile can be cast‚ fired‚ flung‚ heaved‚ hurled‚ pitched‚ tossed and thrown. A projectile can be anything as long as it has initial horizontal velocity that is not equal to zero which has the acceleration due to gravity. Projectile motion happens when an object projected with a force stops putting influence on the object after its launched‚ hence the only force being gravity

Projectile Motion Experiment # 4 Introduction: Projectile Motion exists commonly in our everyday lives and is particularly evident in the motion or flight of objects which are projected from a particular height. The key to working with projectile motion is recognizing that when an object with mass is flying through the air‚ its motion is a combination of vertical and horizontal movements. Although the horizontal velocity of the object remains constant throughout the flight‚ it’s vertical velocity

Freefall and Projectile Motion Introduction and Objectives This lab experiment was done to determine the characteristics of free fall and projectile motion in Physics. The motion in which a body is thrown or projected is called Projectile motion while free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it‚ at least initially. In this experiment‚ a photogate‚ a chopper‚ and a Universal Lab Interface were used to determine the free fall motion of the chopper as it was
