Q4 Projectile Motion

The document discusses the principles of projectile motion, emphasizing the independence of vertical and horizontal components. It outlines learning competencies related to kinematics, including deriving equations and solving problems for various projectile scenarios. Additionally, it explains how gravity affects vertical motion while horizontal motion remains constant, highlighting the characteristics of projectiles and their trajectories.

a theory is correct.
Sometimes, a pattern

Sometimes nature

Learning Competencies:
At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
1. Deduce the consequences of the independence of vertical
and horizontal components of projectile motion;
2. Derive kinematic equations;
3.Identify and explain the properties of a projectile, such as
acceleration due to gravity, range, maximum height and
trajectory; and
4. Solve problems for projectiles launched horizontally and at
various angles to the horizontal to calculate maximum height,
range and overall time of flight of the projectile.
Projectile motion (2D, constant acceleration)
What if the object moves along the x and y axes simultaneously?

Projectile motion occurs when an object moves along


a curve path under the influence of gravity. Such
objects are called projectiles and their path is called a
trajectory (here, a parabola).
Three cases of projectile motion

Case 1: Object is Case 2: Object Case 3: Object is


dropped from a is projected launched upwards at an
considerable height. straight up. angle to the horizontal.
Projectile motion
• Since the object moves
in x and y axes, there are
2 components of motion:
- x (horizontal)
- y (vertical)

• The vertical and


horizontal motion are
independent of each
other.
Projectile motion

• The vertical motion of a projectile is identical


to an object in free fall.

• The projectile will travel the same


horizontal distance as it would if it
were simply rolling on a flat
surface in the absence of friction.

Projectile Motion
• Acceleration due to gravity
is purely vertical!
• It has NO effect on
horizontal motion
Projectile Motion
Recall: velocity is a vector is a vector quantity; definition of
velocity
Projectile Motion
Treat projectile motion as a combination of:

horizontal motion with constant velocity


(uniform linear motion)

and

vertical motion with constant acceleration


(uniformly accelerated motion)
Let us consider this projectile…
