2-Dimensional Motion Definition: motion that occurs with

both x and y components. Example:

Playing pool . Throwing a ball to another person.

Each dimension of the motion can obey different equations of motion.

Page 4: Projectiles Day 1

Solving 2-D Problems Resolve all vectors into components

x-component Y-component

Work the problem as two one-dimensional problems. Each dimension can obey different

equations of motion. Re-combine the results for the two

components at the end of the problem.

Sample Problem You run in a straight line at a speed of 5.0 m/s in a

direction that is 40o south of west.a) How far west have you traveled in 2.5 minutes?b) How far south have you traveled in 2.5 minutes?

Page 6: Projectiles Day 1

Sample Problem A roller coaster rolls down a 20o incline with an

acceleration of 5.0 m/s2.a) How far horizontally has the coaster traveled in 10

seconds?b) How far vertically has the coaster traveled in 10 seconds?

Sample Problem A particle passes through the origin with a speed of

6.2 m/s in the positive y direction. If the particle accelerates in the negative x direction at 4.4 m/s2

a) What are the x and y positions at 5.0 seconds?

Projectile Motion Something is fired, thrown, shot, or

hurled near the earth’s surface. Horizontal velocity is constant. Vertical velocity is accelerated. Air resistance is ignored.

Page 12: Projectiles Day 1

1-Dimensional Projectile Definition: A projectile that moves in a

vertical direction only, subject to acceleration by gravity.

Examples: Drop something off a cliff. Throw something straight up and catch it.

You calculate vertical motion only. The motion has no horizontal

component.

Page 13: Projectiles Day 1

2-Dimensional Projectile Definition: A projectile that moves both

horizontally and vertically, subject to acceleration by gravity in vertical direction.

Examples: Throw a softball to someone else. Fire a cannon horizontally off a cliff. Shoot a monkey with a blowgun.

You calculate vertical and horizontal motion.

Page 14: Projectiles Day 1

Horizontal Component of Velocity Is constant Not accelerated Not influence by gravity Follows equation: x = Vo,xt

Horizontal Component of Velocity

Projectiles with zero launch angle

(a.k.a.: Fired Horizontally)

Page 20: Projectiles Day 1

Launch angle Definition: The angle at which a

projectile is launched. The launch angle determines what

the trajectory of the projectile will be. Launch angles can range from -90o

(throwing something straight down) to +90o (throwing something straight up) and everything in between.

Page 21: Projectiles Day 1

Zero Launch angle

A zero launch angle implies a perfectly horizontal launch.

Sample Problem The Zambezi River flows over Victoria Falls in Africa. The falls are

approximately 108 m high. If the river is flowing horizontally at 3.6 m/s just before going over the falls, what is the speed of the water when it hits the bottom? Assume the water is in freefall as it drops.

Page 23: Projectiles Day 1

Sample Problem An astronaut on the planet Zircon tosses a rock horizontally

with a speed of 6.75 m/s. The rock falls a distance of 1.20 m and lands a horizontal distance of 8.95 m from the astronaut. What is the acceleration due to gravity on Zircon?

Page 24: Projectiles Day 1

Sample Problem Playing shortstop, you throw a ball horizontally to the second

baseman with a speed of 22 m/s. The ball is caught by the second baseman 0.45 s later.

a) How far were you from the second baseman?b) What is the distance of the vertical drop?

Page 25: Projectiles Day 1

Projectiles Day 4Horizontal Projectile Lab:

1. Roll marble down a ramp set up at the edge of a lab table…

2. WITHOUT rolling the marble off the table, calculate where it will hit the floor!

3. Mark your calculated landing spot on the floor with a target on cardboard

HINT: Calculate final velocity at the bottom of the ramp, use this velocity for the “firing” velocity when the marble is allowed to roll off the table. You also need change in Y.

Projectiles with General Launch Angle

Page 27: Projectiles Day 1

General launch angle

vo

Projectile motion is more complicated when the launch angle is not straight up or down (90o or –90o), or perfectly horizontal (0o).

Page 28: Projectiles Day 1

General launch angle

vo

You must begin problems like this by resolving the velocity vector into its components.

Page 29: Projectiles Day 1

Resolving the velocity Use speed and the launch angle to find

horizontal and vertical velocity components

VoVo,y = Vo sin

Vo,x = Vo cos

Page 30: Projectiles Day 1

Resolving the velocity Then proceed to work problems just like

you did with the zero launch angle problems.

VoVo,y = Vo sin

Vo,x = Vo cos

Page 31: Projectiles Day 1

Sample problem A soccer ball is kicked with a speed of 9.50 m/s at an angle of

25o above the horizontal. If the ball lands at the same level from which is was kicked, how long was it in the air?

Page 32: Projectiles Day 1

Sample problem Snowballs are thrown with a speed of 13 m/s from a roof

7.0 m above the ground. Snowball A is thrown straight downward; snowball B is thrown in a direction 25o above the horizontal. When the snowballs land, is the speed of A greater than, less than, or the same speed of B? Verify your answer by calculation of the landing speed of both snowballs.

Projectiles launched over level ground These projectiles have highly

symmetric characteristics of motion. It is handy to know these

characteristics, since a knowledge of the symmetry can help in working problems and predicting the motion.

Lets take a look at projectiles launched over level ground.

Definition: The trajectory is the path traveled by any projectile. It is plotted on an x-y graph.

The Range Equation Derivation is an important part of

physics. Your book has many more

equations than your formula sheet. The Range Equation is in your

textbook, but not on your formula sheet. You can use it if you can memorize it or derive it!

Page 59: Projectiles Day 1

The Range Equation R = vo

2sin(2)/g. R: range of projectile fired over level

ground vo: initial velocity g: acceleration due to gravity : launch angle
