INTUITIVE MECHANICS: INFERENCES OF VERTICAL PROJECTILE MOTION

Intuitive Mechanics: Inferences of Vertical Projectile Motion

Our intuitive knowledge of physics mechanics, i.e.knowledge defined through personal experience about velocity, acceleration, motion causes, etc., is often wrong.This Pinboard research examined whether similar misconceptions occur systematically in the case of vertical projectiles launched upwards.The first experiment examined inferences of velocit
