Projectile Motion 9

Cards (16)

  • Uniform acceleration- it is a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every time period
  • In uniformuniformly acceleration, the value of the acceleration is constant. It does not change. The velocity changes but at a constant rate. An object with zero acceleration is said to be in unform motion.
  • An object in uniformly accelerated motion has non-zero but constant acceleration
  • Projectile- an object undergoing projectile motion
  • Trajectory-the arc/curve like motion path undergone by a projectle
  • The horizontal component of projectile motion has the acceleration equal to 0 since the velocity is constant
  • Why the horizontal component has 0 acceleration? 

    The velocity is constant
  • The vertical component of acceleration is constant since the acceleration is due to gravity
  • Why the vertical component which is the acceleration is constant
    Because of gravity
  • The formula of gravity is 9.8 m/s²
  • The projectile motion is combination of horizontal and verticalvertical motion
  • When an object reaches a maximum height what is the vertical velocity equal?
    0
  • The amount of time the object reaches the maximum height is the same aamount of time needed to face the ground
  • What angle has the maximum height?
    75
  • Which angke the the longest range?
    45°
  • What is the relationship of 30 and 60 and 15 and 45?
    Same
