2D Projectile Motion Model #1 – a virtual tactical shooting range
Hi Folks, As a kid was fascinated with high power rifles, sniper rifles, cannons and in general, fast projectiles. As a kid I’ve been brainwashed with all sorts of urban legends about how far an AK 47...

2D Projectile Motion Tutorial #3
Now that we have a simple animated projectile motion (previous tutorial) let’s try to add on the chart the three instantaneous speed vectors associated with the projectile. These speed vectors are:...

2D Projectile Motion Tutorial #4
This tutorial derives the formulas of a projectile model taking into account the aerodynamic drag. A finite differences numerical method is used. Though fairly easy to apply and understand, this type...

2D Projectile Motion Tutorial #5
This is the next in a series of projectile motion tutorials for creating 2D trajectory models using numerical analysis of projectile dynamics (including aerodynamic drag). The trajectory formulas were...

2D Projectile Motion Tutorial #6
This tutorial simplifies the previous model and manages to describe the (x,y) flight coordinates using just two formulas placed on columns D and E. A custom VBA trajectory function will be introduced...

2D Projectile Motion Tutorial #7
In the this tutorial, after we got most of the trajectory calculation concentrated in just two columns, we will write a custom VBA function (dual output) to replace the spreadsheet computations used....
