Kinematics Part 3: Projectile Motion

The video tutorial explains projectile motion, focusing on the independence of horizontal and vertical motions. It uses examples like a cannonball and marbles to illustrate these concepts. The tutorial also covers how to calculate projectile motion by splitting velocity into x and y components, using trigonometry to find these components, and applying kinematic equations to solve for time and distance. The video concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding these principles for analyzing projectile motion.
