I’ve started recreating many of my numerical model tutorials for introductory physics. In the beginning, I had students use spreadsheets to create models. Of course, spreadsheets aren’t very good for ...
Abstract: The knowledge of yaw and pitch angles can provide significant benefits while assessing the performance of a projectile as it approaches the terminal stage of flight. It is typical in ...

Air resistance models attempt to model more realistic projectile behavior when the force of contact with the air contributes appreciably to the motion. While there are many specific air resistance ...
Due to requests on high rotary velocity of novel smart empennage-stable projectiles, the rolling characteristics under wide-angle oblique angles are studied. Since the wind tunnel tests performed ...
As the name suggests, horizontal motion occurs when the object is thrown horizontally, meaning it starts with zero vertical velocity. The only force acting on the object is gravity, causing it to ...
Suppose you throw some object near the surface of the earth. If the only significant force on the object is the constant downward gravitational force, we call this "projectile motion." Yes, that ...
