Abstract
This article describes the techniques for three classroom demonstrations on projectile motion for the physics classroom. These demonstrations are the plotting of projectile motion using the overhead projector, photographing falling objects using stroboscopic methods, and a variation in the technique of performing the Monkey and the Gun demonstration.
