PROJECTILEA projectile is an object with an initial velocity that is allowed to move under the affects of gravity.

Ex. a javelin throw, a package released by an airplane, a thrown baseball

Types of Projectiles

Trajectory: is the path of the projectile.

Because of Earth’s Gravitational pull and their own inertia, projectiles follow a curved path.They have both horizontal and vertical velocities.

Constant horizontal velocity due to inertiaVix = Vfx ax = 0

Constant horizontal velocity due to inertiaViY = 0aY = -9.8 m/s2

IMPORTANT!!!

The ball’s horizontal and vertical motions are completely independent of each other.

CURVED MOTION UNDER GRAVITY1. Ball is simply dropped

2. Ball is thrown horizontally at 10 m/s3. Ball is thrown horizontally at 20 m/s

1 2 3

In the absence of any frictional forces (like air), all the three balls fall to the ground at the same time.The horizontal motion does not affect the vertical acceleration.

All the three balls are pulled to the ground in the same way because of gravity.All the three balls travel the same vertical distance in the same time.

PROBLEM 1A stone is thrown horizontally at 15 m/s from the top of a cliff 44 m high. A) How long does the stone take to reach the ground? B) How far from the base of the cliff does the stone strike the ground? C) Sketch the trajectory of the stone.

X-componentVi = 15 m/sa = 0 m/s2

Vf =15 m/s

Y- componentVi = 0 m/sa = -9.8 m/s2

D = - 44 m


Vf =15 m/s


D = - 44 mD = Vit + ½ at2

- 44 = ½ (-9.8)t2

t = 3 s

t = 3sD = Vit + ½ at2

D = 15(3) = 45m

A stone is thrown horizontally at a speed of + 5 m/s from the top of a cliff 78.4 m high. A) How long does the stone take to reach the bottom of the cliff? B) How far from the base of the cliff does the stone strike the ground? C) What are the horizontal and vertical velocities of the stone just before it hits the ground?

PROBLEM 2


Vf =5 m/s


D = - 78.4 m


Vf =5 m/s


D = - 78.4 mD = Vit + ½ at2

-78.4=½ (-9.8) t2

t = 4sD = Vit + ½ at2

D = 5(4) = 20 m

PROBLEM 4

A steel ball rolls with a constant velocity across a table top 0.950 m high. It rolls and hits off the ground + .350 m horizontally from the edge of the table. How fast was the ball rolling?

PROBLEM 5

X-componentVi = ? m/sa = 0 m/s2

Vf =? m/sD = +.350 m


D = - .950 m

X-componentVi = ? m/s = Vf

a = 0 m/s2

D = .350 mt = .44 sD = Vit + ½ at2

0.350 = Vi (.44)Vi = .80 m/s


D = -0.950 mD = Vit + ½ at2

-0.950= ½(-9.8)t2

t = .44 s

Suppose you throw a ball upward at an angle.The ball has two types of motion

a) Horizontal Motionb) Vertical Motion

The ball moves horizontally at a constant speed. As it moves up gravity slows the ball down (the y speed decreases). At the maximum height, the ball stops. It changes direction and falls downward. Gravity increases the speed of the ball as it falls.

The path of motion is an arc-shaped curve known as a parabola.Horizontal motion has no effect on the time it takes an object to fall to the ground.
