    1.5 - Projectile Motion

    Introduction
    A projectile is an object that flies through the air. during this flight, it
    exhibits a combination of both horizontal and vertical motion. In its simplest
    form, a projectile is an object thrown straight up in the air.

    Notice that the vertical velocities change over time. This is


    caused by the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s2 [down]).
    Initially the vertical velocity is large, reduces to zero as it
    moves up to its max height, then increases on its way back
    down. To solve for unknowns in a situation like this, one
    would only need to consider the vertical components of the
    object's motion.

    The situation becomes more complex when we introduce horizontal motion:


    Notice the vertical velocities
    behave in the same manner as
    an object launched straight up.
    Now however, one must
    consider that the object is
    exhibiting both vertical and
    horizontal motion
    simultaneously.

    By taking the components vectors, projecle moon can be solved as two one-
    dimensional problems.

    Keys to solving projecle moon quesons:

    1. Find the vercal and horizontal components of all velocity vectors.

    2. Solve the queson as two independent 1D problems where me is the


    common element.
    MOVIE
    3. The acceleraon in the vercal direcon is g = 9.81 m/s2
    4. The acceleraon in the horizontal direcon is zero.

    Ex. A cannon ball is shot horizontally with an inial speed of 100 m/s from a
    60 m high cliff. The cannon ball lands in the water below.
    a) How long is it in the air?

    b) How far from the base of the cliff will the ball go?

    c) Find the impact velocity of the cannon ball.

    Things to remember:

    Horizontal
    Velocity is constant (acceleraon is zero)
    Range is how far the object goes (final height is the same as the inial height)

    Vercal
    Acceleraon is equal to g.
    Vercal velocity is zero at the maximum height.
    Speed is the same at the same height (direcon is opposite).

    Ex: Find the vertical and horizontal components of the following


    launch vector: 2 m/s 15o above the horizontal.

    15˚ above the horizontal. Calculate:
    a) It’s height a8er 1.5 s.
    b) How far it has travelled horizontally in this me.
    c) Its velocity at this me.
