1.3.7 - Projectile motion components

Understand how to make use of the independence of vertical and horizontal motion of a projectile moving freely under gravity.

Use - projectile motion components to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because - projectile motion components determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply - projectile motion components to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: - Projectile motion components is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
