Projectile Target Game

Connect launch angle, speed, gravity, and range through hands-on projectile experiments.

Launch SimulatorTrajectoryTarget

Parameters

Launch speed (v₀, m/s)20.00

540

Launch angle (θ, °)45.00

585

Gravity (g, m/s²)9.80

120

Target distance (m)40.00

Current settings

v₀ = 20 m/s · θ = 45° · g = 9.8 m/s²

Formula Reference

x(t) = v₀·cos(θ)·t

y(t) = v₀·sin(θ)·t − ½·g·t²

Missions0/3

Hit the 40m target

Adjust v₀ and angle to land within 3 metres of the 40m target.
