YP Projectiles is a projectile motion simulator
used in physics classes. To simulate a trajectory,
the user chooses the initial velocity (magnitude
and direction), the vertical displacement
component and the gravitational acceleration. The
software simulates the parabolic trajectory and
writes its main characteristics: range, maximum
height reached, etc.
During the simulation, it is possible to display
three vectors: acceleration, velocity and position,
and four graphs: acceleration, velocity, position
and energy versus time. Trajectories, numerical
data and graphs can be printed, copied or saved
as PICT files.
