Projectile Motion • An example of 2-dimensional motion. • Something is fired, thrown, shot, or hurled near the earth’s surface. • Horizontal velocity is constant. • Vertical velocity is accelerated. • Air resistance is ignored.
y x Trajectory of Projectile This projectile is launched an an angle and rises to a peak before falling back down.
y x Trajectory of Projectile The trajectory of such a projectile is defined by a parabola.
y x Trajectory of Projectile The RANGE of the projectile is how far it travels horizontally. Range
y x Trajectory of Projectile The MAXIMUM HEIGHT of the projectile occurs halfway through its range. Maximum Height Range
y g g g g g x Trajectory of Projectile Acceleration points down at 9.8 m/s2 for the entire trajectory.

…you must first resolve the initial velocity into components. Vo,y = Vo sin Vo,x = Vo cos To work projectile problems… Vo
y x Trajectory of Projectile Velocity is tangent to the path for the entire trajectory. v v v vo vf
y x Trajectory of Projectile The velocity can be resolved into components all along its path. vx vx vy vy vx vy vx vy vx
y x Trajectory of Projectile Notice how the vertical velocity changes while the horizontal velocity remains constant. vx vx vy vy vx vy vx vy vx
y x Trajectory of Projectile Where is there no vertical velocity? vx vx vy vy vx vy vx vy vx
y x Trajectory of Projectile Where is the total velocity maximum? vx vx vy vy vx vy vx vy vx
2D Motion • Resolve vector into components. • Position, velocity or acceleration • Work as two one-dimensional problems. • Each dimension can obey different equations of motion.
Horizontal Component of Velocity Newton's 1st Law • Is constant • Not accelerated • Not influence by gravity • Follows equation: x = Vo,xt
Vertical Component of Velocity Newton's 2nd Law • Undergoes accelerated motion • Accelerated by gravity (9.8 m/s2 down) • Vy = Vo,y - gt • y = yo + Vo,yt - 1/2gt2 • Vy2 = Vo,y2 - 2g(y – yo)
