is a two-dimensional motion. Furthermore,
these two dimensions focus on important
concepts from Module 31:

horizontal dimension of Projectile

Projectile Motion is a form of two-dimensional motion

experienced by an object or particle that is thrown near the
Earth’s surface and moves along a curved path under the
action of gravity. FIGURE 1. A water fountain
creating a parabolic path
CHARACTERISTICS OF PROJECTILE MOTION:

The projectile is thrown in the air.
The projectile motion is determined by the initial
velocity.
The projectile is moving in two dimensions.
The projectile follows a parabolic
path/trajectory.
The projectile is affected by gravity. FIGURE 2. A bike exhibition follows
a parabolic path
TAKE NOTE!
Projectile – an object that, after being
projected, dropped, or launched,
continues its motion by its own inertia
and is influenced only by the downward
force of gravity
Trajectory – the curved path covered
by a projectile after it is being
projected, dropped, or launched
Gravity – a force of attraction between

EXPLORE [Experience]
Why is Projectile Motion considered a two-dimensional motion?

Projectile Motion is a two-dimensional motion primarily because it has two components:
HORIZONTAL COMPONENT – The component of projectile motion wherein the object is
in uniform motion.
VERTICAL COMPONENT – The component of projectile motion wherein the object is in
uniformly accelerated motion, specifically free fall motion
HORIZONTAL COMPONENT (x) VERTICAL COMPONENT (y)

Uniform Motion (UM) Free Fall (Vertical UAM)

EXPLAIN [Experience]
IMPORTANT CONCEPTS
Why do projectiles have curved paths?
The curved path (trajectory) followed by a projectile as it travels is a combination of the horizontal
and vertical components of the said projectile motion. The horizontal component allows the object to
move farther at a constant velocity in a certain distance. On the other hand, the vertical component
allows the object to be influenced by gravity.
Why does the vertical component of velocity for a projectile change with time, whereas the
horizontal component of velocity does not change?
The vertical component of velocity will change – thus, the object will accelerate – because of the
downward influence of gravity. On the other hand, horizontal component of velocity does not change
because there is no “gravity” acting horizontally. There are no other forces affecting horizontally as
well, thus the horizontal component of velocity will be constant.

Step 3: Identify what is common between the two components and/or in which component can we
completely solve for the values of the descriptors.
Take note that for a horizontally launched projectile, the horizontal time tx is equal to vertical time ty.
And since the vertical component has relatively more information than the horizontal component, the
value of time will then be solved using the given descriptors we have in the vertical component.

different weapons used in attacking a medieval castle: fire, battering

on careful, strategic planning, especially considering the range from
where an attack can come from, as well as the height of the
protective castle walls.

CONCEPTUAL EXAMPLE 2
Consider projectiles being launched at the same speed but at different angles, as shown in the figure
below.
FIGURE 4. Different projectiles launched at same speed but at different angles.
There are things that should be taken note of:

• Different angles of launch result to different heights and different ranges.
Greater angle – greater height, lesser range
• Two angles that are complementary result to the same range.
30° and 60° are complementary angles. If two projectiles are launched with the same speed at
30° and 60° respectively, they will cover the same range.
• The maximum range that a projectile may cover is obtained when it is launched at 45°.
TAKE NOTE:
• Two angles are complementary when they add up to 90° (a Right Angle).

GETTING THE HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL VELOCITIES OF A PROJECTILE LAUNCHED AT AN ANGLE
The speed in which a projectile is launched has a horizontal component and vertical component as well.
The horizontal component will be the horizontal velocity or vx of the projectile.
The vertical component will be the vertical velocity of the projectile, and may either be an initial
vertical velocity (viy) or a final vertical velocity (vfy).
To solve for the values of these components of the launching speed, we will make use of trigonometric
functions.
FIGURE 6. Close up the horizontal and vertical

components of the speed of a projectile
Consider the figure above. An object is launched at an angle of 45°.

3. At what point in the projectile's trajectory is the velocity vector entirely horizontal (vertical component
of velocity is zero)?
4. As the simulation runs, the time is displayed at the top of the Interactive. If the Pause button is pressed,
arrows appear next to the time to step the simulation forward or backward. Use these controls to measure
the time it takes to rise to the peak, the total time in the air, and the time it takes to fall from the peak.
Record to the first decimal place.
tup = ____________ s ttotal = ____________ s town = ____________ s
Analyze these measurements and make a generalized statement about tup and tdown.
1. If a ball is dropped from rest from an elevated position at the same instant that a second ball is launched
horizontally (from the same height), then which ball will hit the ground first? Assume the balls behave as
projectiles.
2. What launch angle results in the greatest range? Find a “pattern” that describes what pairs of launch
angles could be expected to result in the same horizontal displacement or range.
Make a conclusion about the experiment, based on its objectives, procedures, and analysis. (3-5
sentences)
