Projectile Motion
Horizontal (x)Vertical (y) tt Projectile Motion Simulator
1.A ball is thrown with an initial velocity of 22.0 m/s [30 o to the horizontal]. a)Calculate how much time the ball is in the air. b)Calculate the horizontal distance the ball landed away from it’s starting position. 30° 22 m/s
[fwd] = +ve [up] = +ve Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) (a) the time was 2.24 s and the horizontal distance (range) was 42.7 m (b)
[fwd] = +ve [up] = +ve Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) horizontal distance (range) was 94.7 m 2.A paintball directed at a target is shot at an angle of 25 o. If the paintball lands at the same height from which it was launched 3.0 s later, find the distance from the shooter to the target.
[fwd] = +ve [up] = +ve Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) the horizontal distance (range) was m
Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) the maximum height of the baseball was m
[fwd] = +ve [up] = +ve Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) the horizontal distance (range) was m the time was s
Vertical (y) Horizontal (x) the maximum height of the baseball was m
