Lesson 2
LEARNING
OBJECTIVE
1. Define concepts involving projectile and
projectile motion
2. Describe the horizontal and vertical
motions of a projectile
3. Cite examples and explain the horizontal
and vertical motions of a projectile under
THE MOTION OF THE DIVER UNDERGOES..
PROJECTILE MOTION
is a form of
motion where an
object moves in a
curved path in 2
dimension
(Horizontal and
Vertical)
PROJECTILE
-an object that
is thrown or
undergoing
projectile
TRAJECTORY
motion
-the curve-like
path undertaken
by a projectile
HORIZONTAL MOTION
(X-COMPONENT)
• neglect air resistance
• There is a constant horizontal
velocity (Vx)
• Horizontal acceleration is 0.
(ax=0)
• We call the horizontal distance as
VERTICAL MOTION
(Y-COMPONENT)
• the force acting upon in this
motion is gravity. (g or ay or ag)
• constant acceleration due to
gravity is always -9.8 m/s2
(negative indicates direction)
• Vertical velocity is not constant
(Vy)
PA R A B O L A
• Combining these dimensions
produce trajector or path called
parabola
TYPES OF PROJECTILE
1. Horizontally
Launched
Projectiles
2. Angle-
Launched
HORIZONTALLY LAUNCHED
PROJECTILE
Horizontally launched projectiles
are projectiles that are launched
with an initial velocity from an
elevated position and follows a
curved-like path to the ground.
HORIZONTALLY LAUNCHED
PROJECTILE
with an
initial
horizontal
velocity but
no initial
vertical
velocity
HORIZONTALLY LAUNCHED
PROJECTILE
Key Characteristics:
• Initial Vertical Velocity (viy) = 0
• Initial Horizontal Velocity (vix) ≠ 0
• Time of flight
A projectile
is launched
at an angle
θ above the
horizontal
ANGLE-LAUNCHED PROJECTILE
Key Characteristics:
• Initial velocity is split into components:
⚬ vx=vicosθ (constant)
⚬ viy=visinθ (changes due to gravity)
• Time of flight
• Maximum Height
ANGLE-LAUNCHED PROJECTILE
Key Characteristics:
• Range
ANGLE-LAUNCHED PROJECTILE

SEATWORK
1. A drone drops a package from a height of
80 meters, and the package has an initial
horizontal velocity of 5 m/s. Ignore air
resistance.
Find:
A. The time of flight before the
package hits the
ground.
SEATWORK
2. A basketball player throws a ball at 20 m/s
at an angle of 50° above the horizontal.
Find:
A. The time of flight before the ball
hits the
ground.
B. The maximum height reached by
the ball.
ASSIGNMENT
1. A soccer ball rolls off a 1.5-meter-high table
with a horizontal velocity of 4 m/s.
A. How long does it take to reach the ground?
B. How far from the base of the table does the
ball land?
2. A cannonball is fired with an initial velocity
of 40 m/s at an angle of 45°.
A. Find the total time the cannonball stays in
the air.
