Refers to the motion of an object that is launched in the air and moves solely under the influence of gravity and the initial horizontal velocity it may have had.
Projectile motion
Gravity decreases the height the projectile can attain.
Air resistance - The force of air acting on an object moving through the air.
Air resistance - A function force that slows an objects' motion and can significantly alter its trajectory motion.
Speed release - Refers to how fast an object is released (thrown or hit).
Height on the release - Refers on how high above the ground an object is released.
Release angle - Refers to the angle an object is hit, thrown, or released.
There are two parts to a projectile motion, projectile and trajectory.
Projectile - The object being thrown or hit in the air.
Trajectory - The path taken by the projectile as it moves through space.
Trajectory - The path that an object is going to follow.
Time of flight - How long the object is in the air.
Maximum height reached - Highest peak of the object.
Maximum horizontal range - Distance from original position to landing spot.
