Boys have a natural advantage at physics because their ability to ‘pee’ up walls helps then understand projectile motion, academics have controversially claimed. So-called ‘playful urination practices ...

Abstract: This study proposes an adaptive control for a projectile aimed at intercepting a target by considering angular dynamics of the projectile. A complete model is built to understand the effect ...

The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Projectile Motion: The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Students learn to describe horizontal and vertical components of a projectile ...

Projectile motion describes how objects move through the air after being launched, like when a ball is thrown or an arrow fired. After launching, the only force acting on the projectile is gravity ...

I wish Angry Birds had been around when I was teaching high school physics. Please don’t think of the game as a hate crime against hogs, or an avian anger management program—instead, think of it as a ...
