Module 4 Flashcards
It is a free-falling motion where an object, usually referred to as a projectile, flies over the air at a certain angle.
Projectile
The object’s path in a projectile motion is known as its _.
trajectory
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The velocity of the object at the start of its trajectory.
Launch Velocity (𝒗̅𝟎)
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The velocity of the object as it comes closer to its destination.
Impact Velocity (𝒗̅𝒇)
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The angle of an object’s initial velocity concerning (wrt) the range
Angle of Elevation (𝜽)
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The highest altitude the object reaches along its trajectory.
Maximum Height (𝒚𝑴𝑨𝑿)
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The maximum horizontal displacement an object can attain
Range (𝒙𝑴𝑨𝑿)
[six (6) important variables in projectile motion]
The total amount of time an object takes to travel from the initial point to its destination.
Flight Time (𝑻)
It is a movement that is observed from another point of view. This motion requires three (3) reference frames:
- the static reference (always referred to as 𝐴),
- the intermediate reference (referred to as 𝐵), and
- the moving reference (referred to as 𝐶).
Relative Motion
