UNIT 4 MODULE 1 FORCES AND MOTION


PROJECTILE MOTION

Concept Notes:

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 that the influence of air
resistance is negligible). An object that is thrown
vertically upward is also a projectile (provided that the
influence of air resistance is negligible).

PARTS OF PROJECTILE MOTION

1. PROJECTILE – is any object that is thrown or


projected upward.
2. PROJECTILE MOTION is a form of motion
where an object given an initial velocity is
thrown or projected and is allowed to be acted
on by gravity in a curved-like path.
3. TRAJECTORY – is the curved path traveled by a projectile.
4. RANGE – is the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile.
5. MAXIMUM HEIGHT – is the maximum vertical distance achieved by a projectile.
6. ANGLE – represented by the Greek letter theta, θ

PROBLEM SOLVING
A projectile is launched at an angle to the horizontal and rises upwards to a peak while moving
horizontally. Upon reaching the peak, the projectile falls with a motion that is symmetrical to its path upwards to
the peak. Predictable unknowns include the time of flight, the horizontal range, and the height of the projectile
when it is at its peak.

Problem Solving Sets


1. Write the given in the problem.
2. Write the required or missing.
3. Write the formula to be used.
4. Write your complete solution.
5. Report your final answer up to two decimal places if necessary.
