Aadam Sheikh SPH4U – LAB ACTIVITY: PROJECTILE MOTION
OBJECTIVE: To explore 2D motion in projectile motion PROCEDURE:
1.
View the video one frame at a time.
2.

ANALYSIS:
1.
Use Excel to graph Horizontal displacement vs. Time
2.
Determine a relationship between Horizontal displacement and time
As the time increases, the horizontal displacement increases
3.
Use Excel to graph Vertical displacement vs. Time
4.
Determine a relationship between Vertical displacement and time
As the time increases, the vertical displacement increases until the maximum height. The vertical displacement then decreases until the vertical displacement is 0.
5.
Draw a curve of best fit and show the equation of the curve
6.
What is the significant of the A coefficient of the equation y = Ax
2
+ Bx + C.
The A value represents whether the parabola is facing up or down, and whether it is vertically compressed or vertically stretched.
