Projectile Motion
If you observed the movement of a golf ball being hit, a frog
hopping, or a free throw being shot with a basketball, you
would notice that all of these objects move through the air
along similar paths.
Each path is a curve that moves upward for a distance, and
then, after a time, turns and moves downward for some
distance. This curve is called a parabola.
An object shot through the air is called a projectile.

Projectile Motion
if you ignore air resistance all objects, move through the air
only under the force of gravity, after being thrown
The force of gravity is what causes the object to curve
downward in a parabolic flight path. Its path through space is
called its trajectory.

Independence of Motion in Two
Dimensions
If two baseball players are tossing balls to each other
If you are standing behind one of the players you
would see it go up and back down (vertically).
If you are watching from a hot-air balloon above the
field, you would see a horizontal motion.
The motion of a projectile is a combination of both.
LI: 1. To describe the relationship
between horizontal and vertical
motions of a projectile.
2. To describe the factors that
affects the projectile motion.
SC: Differentiate between free fall and
projectile launched horizontally.
Vocab: projectile, trajectory
In the following figure the red ball was dropped, and
the purple was given an initial velocity.
 Both balls have the same height.
 Both balls reach the ground at the same time
 The horizontal motion does not affect its
vertical motion they are independent

SC: Drawing the motion diagram.
Vocab: projectile, trajectory
If a person throws a pebble horizontally it will
have an initial horizontal velocity .
 The horizontal velocity is always constant
 The horizontal acceleration is zero
 the vertical velocity of the object increases
because the gravity is acting on it.

Projectiles Launched at an Angle
-The initial velocity has a vertical component and a horizontal
component.
- The horizontal velocity is constant and ax=0
-If the object is launched upward, it rises with
slowing speed, reaches the top of its path with
a speed of zero, and descends with increasing speed.
-There is a symmetry in the path, g=-9.8 m/s2
-If launched from y=0 vyi=-vyf
LI: to discuss the case of projectile
launched at an angle.
Vocab: projectile
SC: Drawing the motion diagram.
Projectiles Launched at an Angle
-One is the maximum height, which is the
height of the projectile when the vertical
velocity is zero .
-The other quantity is the range, R, which
is the horizontal distance that the
projectile travels.
Not shown is the flight time (hang time),
which is how much time the projectile is
in the air.

Forces from Air
So far, air resistance has been ignored in the analysis of
projectile motion.
While the effects of air resistance are very small for some
projectiles, for others, the effects are large and complex.
For example, dimples on a golf ball reduce air resistance
and maximize its range.
The force due to air resistance does exist and it can be
important.
