    Curvilinear Motion Projectile Motion When the player hits the “Sepak”‚ the motion of the “Sepak” is called projectile motion. The “Sepak” itself is called projectile. The “Sepak” will follow a parabolic path called trajectory especially if air resistance is negligible. Two coordinates are usually used to describe projectile motion: horizontal and vertical axes. The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is called the range. While the vertical distance‚ that is‚ the distance from where

    projectile motion. A projectile is an object flying through the air that is only under the force of gravity (neglecting air resistance). A projectile moves both horizontally and vertically‚ which creates a parabolic flight path. In vertical projectile motion there is a constant velocity since there are no forces in the horizontal direction (neglecting drag due to air resistance). Consequently‚ there is no acceleration in horizontal projectile motion. In vertical projectile motion gravity is

"Typing wand" makes me sound like a nerdy magician. Some handicapped people use chin pointers to type. Others use programs such as Dragon Naturally Speaking to dictate to the computer. Technology has developed to the point where you can actually move a mouse by simply moving your head. A laser dot is placed on your forehead and

    Perpetual Motion I will be researching perpetual motion and why it is said to be impossible. The reason I chose this topic is because I remember learning the laws of thermodynamics in my eighth grade science class. After explaining these laws‚ the teacher added‚ “…and that is why perpetual motion machines are impossible.” Since we have been studying related topics such as motion‚ gravity‚ and friction‚ I figure it would be a great time to learn specifically why it is considered impossible
