Complete the Projectile Motion interactive. Login information.
In this interactive, you will explore the properties of projectile motion Remember, this is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air at an angle. . You can try to hit a target by varying conditions, such as:
- the direction and location of the launch,
- the projectile's mass and shape and size, and
- the presence of air resistance.
The parabolic trajectory of each projectile is plotted, along with markers to show changes in position at quarter-second intervals.
