PHYS 101: Objects in Motion

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

Explore the physics behind calculating the velocity of pebbles thrown by Romeo to hit Juliet's window with only a horizontal component.

Discover how energy conservation principles determine the velocity of a bouncing ball. Relate the ball's height and its potential and kinetic energies. Understand the velocity change upon impact and rebound.

Explore the world of high-performance sports cars and learn how to calculate their average acceleration when accelerating and coming to a stop.

Explore the physics of a light-rail commuter train's motion. Understand how to calculate times for acceleration and deceleration using the equations of motion. Dive into the concept of emergency deceleration and its implications.
