Activity 3: Projectile Motion Name: Date:

Qualitative and Quantitative
Section: Score: /15

Objectives:

 Understand the basic concepts of Projectile motion

 Visualize the projected motion of an object by tracing the motion of an object at certain angle
 Apply the concepts by recognizing its examples in real life situations

Activity 3.1: Modified True or False

Write TRUE in the space provided if the following statements are correct and if false, change the bold word or phrase to
make the statement/s correct. (5pts)

1. Uniformly Accelerated motion PROJECTILE MOTION is a form of motion where an object given an initial
velocity is thrown or projected and is allowed to be acted on by gravity.
2. As the projectile reaches its highest peak, the vertical velocity continuously increases. TRUE
3. Trajectory is a straight CURVE path followed by a projectile motion.
4. In projectile motion, Horizontal and vertical motions are independent to each other as they do not influence one
another. TRUE
5. The shape of the trajectory of projectile is parabolic. TRUE

Activity 3.2: Face it and Trace it!

Draw the correct projected motion of the canon in point A to successfully launched in point B (5pts)

Visualize and trace of the cannonball launched horizontally from Point A to Point B in 0 degrees’ axis.

Activity 3.3: Projectiles

Give 5 examples of sports/games that exhibits projectile motion (5pts)
