Mathematical Model Of Projectile Motion
It is assumed that the only force acting on a projectile the object experiencing projectile motion is the force due to gravity.
Mathematical model of projectile motion. Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air subject to only the acceleration of gravity. In chapter 2 you were introduced. The projectile motion is defined as the form of motion that is experienced by an object when it is projected into the air which is subjected to the acceleration due to gravity. The object is called a projectile and its path is called its trajectory the motion of falling objects as covered in problem solving basics for one dimensional kinematics is a simple one dimensional type of projectile motion in which there is no horizontal movement.
Begingroup tonypiccolo drag is considered and it is a vertical motion endgroup divergent apr 30 14 at 15 09 begingroup umberto i was asked to show the differential equation as m dv dt αv mg the mass of the object m is 0 1 kg initial velocity u 5m s and α 1 0 kg s and g 10m s 2. You will also validate the model by comparing your predictions with your experimental results. 5 1 making a mathematical model you met some examples of mathematical models in chapter 1 where they take the form of a graph or equation obtained from data collected in experiments. In these and other instances mathematical modelling of projectile motion proves very useful.
