Introduction to Projectile Motion

REVIEW

Multiple Choice

In what dimension where the object moves horizontally?

• x - axis

• y- axis

Multiple Choice

if an object is moving in a y- axis the object is moving in what dimension?

• horizontal dimension

• vertical dimension

Multiple Choice

Which of the two images shows a uniformly accelerated motion?

Multiple Choice

What is the constant value of the acceleration due to gravity?

• 9 m/s^2

• 9.8 m/s^2

• 9 m/s

• 9.8 m^2/s^2

Multiple Choice

True or False

If you drop a rock and a piece of paper at the same time regardless of the air resistance, it will land at the same time

• True

• False

Multiple Choice

Now you learned that the object can move in horizontal and vertical dimension, Do think an object can move in both dimension at the same time ?

• YES and object can move in both horizontal and vertical dimension

• NO an object cannot move in both horizontal and vertical dimension

PROJECTILE MOTION

Learning Objective:

1. Describe the horizontal and vertical motions of a projectile.

2. Solve the horizontal projectile mathematically.

3. Relate the importance of studying projectile.

Projectile Motion

is a form of motion, which an object moves in a curve path

Multiple Select
