What happens to vertical velocity in projectile motion without air resistance?
It changes due to the
acceleration of free fall
.
View source
How can vertical displacement and time of flight be determined in projectile motion?
Using
equations of motion
.
View source
What happens to horizontal velocity in projectile motion without air resistance?
It remains
constant.
View source
What are the key characteristics of projectile motion assuming no air resistance?
Vertical velocity changes due to
free fall acceleration
.
Vertical displacement and time of flight can be calculated using
equations of motion
.
Horizontal velocity
remains constant.
View source
What is the horizontal component of motion when it is equal to zero?
Horizontal competed = 0
View source
Why does the horizontal component of motion remain constant?
Because there is no force acting in the horizontal direction
View source
What is the direction of acceleration in free fall?
Vertical direction
View source
What remains constant even though there is acceleration in free fall?
The
horizontal velocity
remains constant
View source
What can we always measure in relation to motion?
We can always measure
distance
View source
What equipment can be used to measure time and distance in experiments?
Simple lab equipment such as a
timer
and a ruler
View source
What is the relationship between horizontal speed and distance?
There is a
direct relationship
As distance
increases
, horizontal speed increases
No force acts in the
horizontal direction
View source
How do you calculate the horizontal velocity of a ball?
By measuring the
distance
and
time
View source
What is the formula for calculating distance in horizontal motion?
The formula is
d
=
d =
d
=
v
t
vt
v
t
, where
v
v
v
is
velocity
and
t
t
t
is time
View source
What is the significance of having no force in the horizontal direction?
It means the horizontal
velocity
remains constant
View source
What should you do to analyze the motion of an object?
Take some values and plot them into a
graph
View source
What is the purpose of using a ruler in motion experiments?
To measure the
distance
traveled by the object
View source
What is the first step in calculating horizontal velocity?
Measure the
distance
View source
What does the term "latinsia" refer to in the context of motion?
It likely refers to the concept of
distance
or
displacement
