Physics Kinematics Problem Solver

Solve 1D constant-acceleration kinematics problems and 2D projectile motion, with a full step-by-step derivation. Enter any 3 of the 5 quantities (displacement, initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration, time) and the solver finds the other two, showing each formula, the substitution, and the result. For projectiles, enter launch speed/angle/height to get range, time of flight, and max height.
