Projectile Motion

Front

What is the velocity of a projectile at its highest point?

Back

0 m/s

Front

What is the acceleration of a projectile during its flight?

Back

9.8 m/s²

Front

What is the path followed by a projectile called?

Back

Trajectory

Front

Where can we measure the maximum range of the projectile?

Back

At the landing point (E).

Front

At which point can we measure the maximum height of the projectile?

Back

At point B.

Front

Define 'projectile motion'.

Back

Motion of an object thrown into the air, subject to gravitational acceleration.

Front

What factors affect the range of a projectile?

Back

Initial velocity, launch angle, and height of launch.

Front

What is the formula for the range of a projectile launched at an angle?

Back

Range = (v² * sin(2θ)) / g, where v is initial velocity, θ is launch angle, and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Front

What is the effect of air resistance on projectile motion?

Back

It reduces the range and alters the trajectory.

Front

What is the significance of the launch angle in projectile motion?

Back

It determines the shape of the trajectory and the range.
