Learning Targets

Students should be able to add, subtract, and resolve displacement and velocity vectors, so they can:

(4) Determine components of a vector along two specified, mutually perpendicular axes.

(5) Determine the net displacement of a particle or the location of a particle relative to another.

(6) Determine the change in velocity of a particle or the velocity of one particle relative to another.

Students should understand the motion of projectiles in a uniform gravitational field, so they can:

(7) Write down expressions for the horizontal and vertical components of velocity and position as functions of time, and sketch or identify graphs of these components.

(8) Use these expressions in analyzing the motion of a projectile that is projected with an arbitrary initial velocity.
