Overview

Engineering reference data for Projectile Motion Equations in dynamics.

Key Formulas

Newton's Second Law

F=maF = ma

Force = mass × acceleration.

Kinetic Energy

Ek=12mv2E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Energy of motion.

Momentum

p=mvp = mv

Mass × velocity.

Work

W=FdcosθW = Fd\cos\theta

Force × displacement × cos(angle).
