Range of a projectile To make this problem slightly easier, I am going to first look at the range of an object in projectile motion. Let me assume the following: ...

Projectile motion problems can easily become algebra problems that focus on identifying the right number in a diagram and substituting it into the correct equation.

Actually, projectile motion is now two labs. In the first lab, the goal is to measure the launch speed (with uncertainty) and then the second lab looks at projectile motion.

The group states that there are significant benefits to the warfighter in using a limited range projectile. "The biggest advantage is reduced risk of collateral damage," McFarlane said.
