Physclips: Projectiles
published by the University of New South Wales
written by Joe Wolfe
This web page provides a multimedia introduction to projectiles.  It includes topics such as drag and air resistance, a simple experiment to measure g, the independence of vertical and horizontal motion, trajectory, and range.  Short video clips, still images, graphs, and diagrams are integrated with text to promote understanding of important concepts.  

This tutorial is part of the PhysClip collection of web-based resources on introductory mechanics, electricity, and magnetism.
