The Projectile Puzzle
How does GPS predict where you will be in 5 seconds? How do sports analysts track ball trajectories?
The secret lies in understanding kinematics - the mathematics of motion.
The Challenge: Predict the Path
A ball is launched at 45 degrees. Before clicking launch, predict: which path will it follow? The same physics that governs this ball allows GPS to predict your car's position!
Which path does the ball follow?
Try it! Click Launch Ball to see the motion, then guess which path it follows!
