PHYS 211 Lecture 7 Outline of Last Lecture I. VectorsOutline of Current Lecture I. Components of MotionII. Projectile MotionCurrent LectureI. Components of Motion **Cosine does not always apply to the x direction, and sine does not always apply to the y direction** x and y components are calculated SEPERATELY If acceleration is not parallel to the velocity, the object will move in a curveII. Projectile MotionAn object projected horizontally has an initial velocity in the horizontal direction, and acceleration (due to gravity) in the vertical direction. The time it takes to reach the ground is the same as if it were simply dropped.A projectile launched in an arbitrary direction may have initial velocity components in both the horizontal and vertical directions, but its acceleration is still downwardThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a
