2 Projectile - an object for which the only force acting upon it is gravity. The force of air resistance is negligibly small or nonexistent for a projectile. Projectile Motion Horizontal / Vertical Motion Demonstration #1 No horizontal velocity

3 Projectile - an object for which the only force acting upon it is gravity. The force of air resistance is negligibly small or nonexistent for a projectile. Projectile Motion Horizontal / Vertical Motion Demonstration #1 Constant horizontal velocity  Horizontal and vertical motions are independent of one another and can therefore be analyzed separately.

4 Projectile Motion Horizontal / Vertical Motion Demonstration #2  Horizontal and vertical motions are independent of one another and can therefore be analyzed separately. LoggerPro Vertically for both balls

5 Horizontal Range LoggerPro Since there are not any horizontal forces Because of Newton’s First Law

6 Vertical Uniformly Accelerated Motion

7 Projectile Motion is a combination of: Constant velocity horizontallyUniformly accelerated motion vertically
