Projectile Simuation



Title Projectile Simuation
Description I attempted to use the numerical nature of the cannon simulation to show the complementary angle nature of range and the real-world conditions affecting projectiles (air resistance and drag). In addition, I modified this to show the path of trajectory where the initial vertical velocity is zero.
