Title: Projectile at an Angle
Description: Figuring out the horizontal displacement for a projectile launched at an angle
Url: http://www.khanacademy.org/video/projectile-at-an-angle?playlist=Physics
InternalName: projectile-at-an-angle
YoutubeId: ZZ39o1rAZWY
Keywords: physics, projectile, component, launch, motion

My Notes
--------
As an example, you can change angleDegrees to any value between 0 and 360.
And/or change the initial velocity (vInitial) to 5 or 20 or whatever.
Pretend you're on the Moon where g has a value of -1.6 .
