This activity is designed to assess the comprehension of concepts related to motion in two dimensions and projectile motion.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Motion/forces in Two Dimensions: Projectile's Trajectory
This illustrated tutorial discusses the horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's motion; specific attention will be given to the presence/absence of forces, accelerations, and velocity.
Physics Classroom

Three complete tutorials on vectors and two dimension forces and motion. Lessons include informational text, interactive activities, animations, and quick, interactive comprehension checks along the way.
Physics Aviary
Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Speed of Horizontal Projectile
Students must determine the horizontal speed of a projectile based on the distance that it travels and other given information. Students must find the time of flight and put it in milliseconds. Finally, students must find the final...
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Horizontally Launched Projectile Problems
In the case of projectiles, students use information about the initial velocity and position of a projectile to predict such things as how much time the projectile is in the air and how far the projectile will go. They do this to make...
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Horizontal and Vertical Components of Velocity
Students learn how to describe the motion of projectiles numerically; specifically how the numerical values of the x and y components of the velocity and displacement change with time. Includes animations and interactive simulation.
Physics Aviary
Physics Aviary: Projectile Lab
This lab is designed to have students find the relationships that affect the horizontal distance travelled by a projectile. Students will be able to modify the starting height, initial speed and angle at which the projectile is fired....

The Physics Classroom: Horizontally Launched Projectile Animation
An animation showing a projectile that is launched horizontally. Animation shows the horizontal and vertical components and their velocity.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Non Horizontally Launched Projectile Animation
An animation showing a projectile that is launched at an angle. Animation shows the horizontal and vertical components and their velocity.
