A fun 2-D projectile motion simulator made with Tkinter

The program creates a visual representation of a 2-D projectile by taking in 3 parameters: Height, Speed, Angle and then applies them to basic kinematics formulas.

Height refers to the starting point of the projectile, while speed and angle are used to produce the velocity vector of the projectile.

The GUI was created with Tkinter and renders a 2-D projectile on its trajectory in real-time, the boundaries of the canvas scale depending on either the maximum height or the distance travelled horizontally, which ever is greater. This way it is ensured that the projectile never leaves the canvas.

Add air resistance for the projectile where information like mass, projectile radius, area, and drag coefficient are entered through the GUI for users

Add a plot behind the projectile

Create a target for the user to hit
