Projectile motion problems can easily become algebra problems that focus on identifying the right number in a diagram and substituting it into the correct equation.

The key to projectile motion is to realize that the horizontal and vertical motions are independent of each other (except for the time each motion takes). This essentially makes a 2-d problem, 2 1 ...

We see a projectile motion problem. Yes, for any object that has a motion that is due to the gravitational force only physicists call that projectile motion. Great, but what can we do?

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...
