Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

In a previous post, I was trying to show that the range of a projectile depends on the launch angle. Yes, this isn’t that too difficult to see in an introductory physics course, but how do you ...

The textbooks say that the maximum range for projectile motion (with no air resistance) is 45 degrees. How do you get this? Here we go.

Here's how I explained the concept of "angle of descent" back in 2006. But here's the bit that justifies Dawson's explanation of projectile motion.

They are varying the initial angles and velocities to hit a target distance. Take advantage of student interest with the following strategies to help you integrate Angry Birds into your instruction.
