Understandings:

• Equations of motion for uniform acceleration

• Projectile motion

• Fluid resistance and terminal speed

Applications and skills:

• Solving problems using equations of motion for uniform acceleration

• Analysing projectile motion, including the resolution of vertical and horizontal components of acceleration, velocity and displacement

Guidance:

• Calculations will be restricted to those neglecting air resistance

• Projectile motion will only involve problems using a constant value of g close to the surface of the Earth

• The equation of the path of a projectile will not be required
