# 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).
