Uses an embedded Java applet by Angel Franco Garcia for convenience. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=91000 Kinematic equations can be applied to predict the final parameter's of a projectile's motion. Apply the equations to solve the following horizontally-launched projectile problems. Requires Shockwave. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74446 This virtual experiment is designed to let the student measure the relation between muzzle velocity (which determines projectile energy), gravitational potential and the effects of frictional drag caused by wind speed blowing opposite to the direction the projectile is moving in. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=90999 Ten problems will be generated in a random manner. Your task involves interpretting a graph and identifying the motion parameters which would be required to duplicate the graph. Requires Shockwave. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89704 A self-graded quiz on basic kinematics and dynamics from the first semester of an algebra-based introductory physics course. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89705 A self-graded quiz on basic kinematics and dynamics (including rotational dynamics) from the first semester of an algebra-based introductory physics course. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89168 Web Assignment on projectile motion using an embedded applet by Angel Franco Garcia. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89166 Web assignment on ballistic motion using an embedded applet by Mark Sutherland.
