Physics X Y V0V0 0
3 Two dimensional motion: y-direction: x-direction:
Physics VxVx VyVy PROJECTILE MOTION Y X
Physics Equations of Motion Horizontal Motion:
Physics Vertical Motion
Physics Vertical Motion
Physics Firing rockets from a fighting jet h = 2 km v= 600 km/h x = ?
Physics Solution:
Physics THE STUPID MONKEY x vovo 0 h
Physics EQUATION OF MOTION FOR THE BULLET
Physics FOR THE MONKY
Physics When they meet,
Physics EQUATION OF THE PROJECTILE PATH
Physics X 0 = 0 AND Y 0 = 0 AT T = 0, THEN X Y
Physics THE HORIZONTAL RANGE X Y R
Physics MAXIMUM HEIGHT: X Y H
Physics Example: Which reaches the ground first? h
Physics h For the bullet:
Physics For the stone: h
Physics BOTH REACH GROUND AT THE SAME TIME At any time t, both will be at the same height
Physics throwing a bottle upward while driving a car at constant velocity, will the bottle smash your head!! Example:
