Interactive site to build a graph of what a projectile does, once the specifics of weight, speed and angle of trajectory... see more
Exercise
1. Access the website.
2. Fill in the various parameters.
3. Observe the shapes of the graphs, based on those parameters.
4. Make your own graphs using new parameters (which should have similar shapes
to those you have seen).
