This web site outlines a course module on projectile motion and 2D kinematics. Students investigate the flight path of a projectile launched via catapults they design and build. Lesson and Lab plans, worksheets, a Stella model, and evaulations are all provided.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Kinematics: The Physics of Motion
Unit Title: Motion in More Than One Dimension This project-based unit explores 2-dimensional motion equations and applies them to the real world phenomena of projectiles. Students build small-scale catapults to investigate the scenario of delivering supplies to a group of hikers stuck across a deep river gorge. Computer modeling techniques are introduced, with extensive support for both teacher and learner. Individual lessons may be pulled out if time is limited. Link to Unit:
