I don't know if you check old comment...Hi Greg. I don't know if you check old comments or not, but since I'm currently reading through the old ones, I imagine at least some people do ...<br /><br />There is a Phet simulation at https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/projectile-motion/latest/projectile-motion_en.html<br />that does this. It's free and HTML5. It has maybe a bit more options than you are specifically looking for, but it can be set up to do exactly what you describe. (And after the students see it with no air resistance, you can add in air resistance and check out the difference!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088860151651047897.post-44421121968262883602018-01-17T06:40:02.645-05:002018-01-17T06:40:02.645-05:00Yes...

I saw the firework, but if I remember right their g was quantized, so I couldn’t quite get the ratios I want.<br /><br />But the aviary is amazing. It is one of four sites I’d say that all physics teachers should be aware of... huh. Perhaps that’d be a good post. :-)Greg Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121422726610824760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5088860151651047897.post-47671046671481540652018-01-17T00:08:08.845-05:002018-01-17T00:08:08.845-05:00Greg, are you familiar with thephysicsaviary.com ?...Greg, are you familiar with thephysicsaviary.com ? If not you will be blown away! Here is the link to the exact lab you want, modeled with a firework. Everything on the site is HTML5. It is the best free physics resource on the net! Definitely take a look at the randomly generated homework problems. <br />http://www.thephysicsaviary.com/Physics/Programs/Labs/FireworkVerticalMotionLab/index.htmlSalem Physicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038676554232959833noreply@blogger.com
