  2. Projectile motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion

    In projectile motion, the horizontal motion and the vertical motion are independent of each other; that is, neither motion affects the other. This is the principle of compound motion established by Galileo in 1638, [1] and used by him to prove the parabolic form of projectile motion. [2]

  3. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    Ideal projectile motion states that there is no air resistance and no change in gravitational acceleration.This assumption simplifies the mathematics greatly, and is a close approximation of actual projectile motion in cases where the distances travelled are small.

  4. External ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_ballistics

    A projectile following a ballistic trajectory has both forward and vertical motion. Forward motion is slowed due to air resistance, and in point mass modeling the vertical motion is dependent on a combination of the elevation angle and gravity. Initially, the projectile is rising with respect to the line of sight or the horizontal sighting plane.

  5. Projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile

    In projectile motion the most important force applied to the ‘projectile’ is the propelling force, in this case the propelling forces are the muscles that act upon the ball to make it move, and the stronger the force applied, the more propelling force, which means the projectile (the ball) will travel farther. See pitching, bowling.

  6. Theory of impetus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_impetus

    Aristotelian physics is the form of natural philosophy described in the works of the Greek philosopher Aristotle (384–322 BC). In his work Physics, Aristotle intended to establish general principles of change that govern all natural bodies, both living and inanimate, celestial and terrestrial – including all motion, quantitative change, qualitative change, and substantial change.

  7. Trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory

    Assume the motion of the projectile is being measured from a free fall frame which happens to be at (x,y) = (0,0) at t = 0. The equation of motion of the projectile in this frame (by the equivalence principle) would be = ⁡ ().

  8. Vertical and horizontal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_and_horizontal

    Neglecting the curvature of the earth, horizontal and vertical motions of a projectile moving under gravity are independent of each other. [11] Vertical displacement of a projectile is not affected by the horizontal component of the launch velocity, and, conversely, the horizontal displacement is unaffected by the vertical component.

  9. Parabola of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola_of_safety

    In classical mechanics and ballistics, the parabola of safety or safety parabola is the envelope of the parabolic trajectories of projectiles shot from a certain point with a given speed at different angles to horizon in a fixed vertical plane.
