1 Day 17 2-23-11 Topic: Projectile Motion
Objective: I will analyze the 2 components of projectiles. Science starter: Next slide--

2 Two Golfers Andy and Jan decide to hit golf balls off a cliff onto a flat pasture below. Both hit the balls horizontally. Andy hits his ball so it travels at a larger velocity than Jan’s. Whose ball hits the ground first? Whose ball hits the ground farther? Explain your reasoning.

3 Finding Horizontal and Vertical distance of a projectile

4 A bowling ball rolls off a high cliff at 5 m/sec
A bowling ball rolls off a high cliff at 5 m/sec. Complete the chart that describes its motion during each second it is in the air. Time (s) Horizontal velocity (m/s) Vertical velocity (m/s) Horizontal distance (m) Vertical distance 5 1 2 3 4

5 Graph x and y distances (20x20)
