A firework is a great example of vectors because it shows and measures the quantity and magnitude of the work. In one ariel firework alone, there are many physics relationships between the amount of velocities, their trajectories, and this unit’s vectors. Pyrotechnicians use formulas such as the Pythagorean Theorem, Trigonometric Functions, and graphs to determine the relationship between the initial velocity and the distance traveled, the height, and angle that these shells explode. This helps to maintain a safe environment and helps to create a wonderful choreographed show.
