As the name suggests, horizontal motion occurs when the object is thrown horizontally, meaning it starts with zero vertical velocity. The only force acting on the object is gravity, causing it to ...

This project provides a numerical solution to the classical physics problem of a projectile launched into the air while subject to a quadratic drag force (air resistance proportional to the square of ...

If you didn't catch the latest MythBusters (yeah! new episodes), they did something straight from the physics textbooks. Just about every text has this example of shooting a bullet horizontally and ...

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 ...

WE are told in the Preface to this work that “the consideration of the motion of a projectile naturally divides itself into three parts—first, its motion in the bore of the gun; second, its motion ...

THE experiments made by Hutton to determine the resistance of the air to the motion of shot were carried out by firing small spherical balls into the receiver of a gun-pendulum. As little confidence ...
