Ideal Projectile Motion What do we mean by the word “ideal” here? Assumptions: • The projectile behaves like a particle moving in a vertical coordinate plane. • The only force acting on the projectile during its flight is the constant force of gravity. • The projectile will follow a trajectory that is perfectly parabolic.

Ideal Projectile Motion Position, velocity, acceleration due to gravity, and launch angle at t

Ideal Projectile Motion Position, velocity, acceleration due to gravity, and launch angle at t = 0… Initial velocity: Initial position: r = 0 at time t = 0

Ideal Projectile Motion Newton’s second law of motion: the force acting on the projectile

Ideal Projectile Motion Newton’s second law of motion: the force acting on the projectile is equal to the projectile’s mass times its acceleration. For ideal motion, this force is solely the gravitational force: Let’s solve this initial value problem, using initial conditions: and First integration: Second integration: when

Ideal Projectile Motion This is the vector equation for ideal projectile motion. The angle is the projectile’s launch angle (firing angle, angle of elevation), and is the projectile’s initial speed. Break into a pair of scalar equations: These are the parametric equations for ideal projectile motion. Gravity constants:
