Andy's reflection on projectile motion

     The things I learned in class during projectile motion is that objects that are thrown will get affected by factors of gravity, air resistance, and weight. I didn't know that gravity doesn't affect the horizontal distance.  Also the weight of the object can also change the distance and the way it travels. I have also learned how to use the equations to find the projectile motion. I have also learned that many factors affect the way objects moves, like angle and the initial velocity.

     The things I found difficult in this unit is how to apply the given factors into the equations. When doing the problems, sometimes I use the wrong numbers in the equations and get them wrong, which confuses me or when i use the wrong formulas to the problem. Even silly mistakes can make my answers wrong because the question may seem easy. Which in conclusion, I should double check my answers to make sure I have done my questions right.

     My problem-solving skills depends on the work I show in the questions and the way I work in class. If i show the steps to the questions, I can have a better understanding of what to do next and will reduce the mistakes I make. My weakness is that I apply the wrong information into the equation and get it wrong.
