Projectile-Simulator

A realistic projectile simulator made in Turing as a personal project.

Try it yourself!

Download the folder "Projectile Simulator" then run the file "Kinematics Project V8.exe".

To access the source code

Download and install a version of Turing from http://compsci.ca/holtsoft/ OR a version of Open Turing from http://tristan.hume.ca/openturing/ and access any of the 'Kinematics Project Vx.t' files.

How it works

It was made on with basic functions that use gravitational and kinematic equations as well as simple loops and sprites.

Challenges I ran into

Surprisingly, the biggest challenge I ran into was not obtaining the data to plot, instead, it was coming up with the most appropriate scale and the ratio of pixels/metres.

Why I made it

I was inspired to make this as a fun project by my friends in high school who were taking physics at the time, as well by the current grade 12 physics teacher who I knew from the Earth & Space science class. (I added his face as a projectile that can be launched lol).
