Projectile Motion 03

Projectile motion is all around us. From a Khuru flying through the air to satellites orbiting Earth, objects move under gravity in a predictable way. Vertical motion changes due to gravity while horizontal motion stays constant. By using simple equations and trigonometry, we can calculate their path, speed, and direction. From seed dispersal to volcanoes, from games to space, the mathematics of projectiles helps us understand and predict motion in nature and everyday life.
