Air resistance and projectile investigations

What this note covers

1. What air resistance changes
2. Explain terminal speed using net force
3. Design a launch investigation that can be repeated
4. Extract motion from video without manufacturing precision
5. Separate uncertainty, bias and model limits
6. Connect experimental evidence to scientific practice
7. Worked terminal-speed model: test what the data can support
8. Worked video analysis: distinguish drag from measurement artefacts
