Projectile motion
Vectors and scalars• A vector quantity is described
by its magnitude and by its direction.
• Examples – 10.0 m/s north; 10.0m/s2 down; 5.0N up.

Projectile motionVectors and scalars• Vector quantities are represented by
arrows. • The length of the arrow is proportional
to the magnitude of the vector quantity. The head of the arrow points in the direction of the vector. The other end of the arrow is the tail of the vector.

Two vectors

Projectile motionWhen vectors are parallel to each other we add and subtract them in a straightforward manner. • If they have the same sign (point in
the same direction) we add their magnitudes.
![Page 6: Projectile motion Vectors and scalars A scalar quantity is described only by its magnitude Examples – 5.0kg; 10.0 l; 50.0 o C; 10.0m/s](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649dd25503460f94ac9021/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Projectile motion. • If they have different signs (point
in the opposite directions), we subtract their magnitudes.

Two vectors – tail to tail
![Page 9: Projectile motion Vectors and scalars A scalar quantity is described only by its magnitude Examples – 5.0kg; 10.0 l; 50.0 o C; 10.0m/s](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649dd25503460f94ac9021/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Projectile motionVectors and scalars• We can add vectors by putting their
tails together, and drawing dotted lines parallel to the vectors.

Projectile motionVectors and scalars• We draw a diagonal from the point
where the two tails meet to the opposite corner of the rectangle that was formed.

Projectile motionVectors and scalars• The diagonal is the sum of the two
original vectors and is called the resultant.

Projectile motion
• Frequently it is convenient to separate vectors into perpendicular components.
• We do this by constructing a parallelogram that has the vector as a diagonal.

Projectile motion
• A projectile is an object moving only under the influence of gravity. We also say that the object is in free fall.
• We can separate the horizontal and vertical components of a projectile’s velocity by using vectors.
![Page 19: Projectile motion Vectors and scalars A scalar quantity is described only by its magnitude Examples – 5.0kg; 10.0 l; 50.0 o C; 10.0m/s](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649dd25503460f94ac9021/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Projectile motion
• The horizontal component of a projectile’s velocity does not change. It is constant.
![Page 20: Projectile motion Vectors and scalars A scalar quantity is described only by its magnitude Examples – 5.0kg; 10.0 l; 50.0 o C; 10.0m/s](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649dd25503460f94ac9021/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Projectile motion
• The vertical component of a projectile’s velocity is always changing because it always accelerating downward.
![Page 21: Projectile motion Vectors and scalars A scalar quantity is described only by its magnitude Examples – 5.0kg; 10.0 l; 50.0 o C; 10.0m/s](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649dd25503460f94ac9021/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Projectile motion
• The two motions can be treated independently.

Projectile motion
• If a projectile is launched upward at an angle, it will follow a parabolic path if there is no air resistance.

• In the presence of air resistance the parabolic path is altered.

Projectile motion
• Satellites are projectiles that move so fast, that the Earth curves away from them at the same rate that they are falling toward the earth.
• This can only happen beyond the atmosphere where an object moving at those speeds will not burn up fron air friction.
