Projectile Motion: Speed, Height, Time & Range
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Join us for an engaging exploration of projectile motion as we dissect a fascinating scenario. We delve into the physics of a projectile fired with an initial speed of 36.6 m/s at an angle of 42.2° above the horizontal on a flat firing range. Discover how to determine the maximum height, total time in the air, total horizontal distance covered (range), and the speed of the projectile 1.50 seconds after firing. This video will demystify the dynamics of projectiles in a clear and educational manne
