Overview
This experiment studies the motion of a projectile launched at an angle. The maximum height (h) and the maximum range (S) of the projectile are determined as a function of the launch angle (φ). Kinematic equations are used to analyze the relationship between the launch angle, height, and range, with horizontal and vertical components of motion examined separately.
Significance
This experiment is essential for understanding two-dimensional motion, which is applied in ballistics, sports science, and engineering.
