This example demonstrates the physical phenomenon of a bullet hitting wood blocks vertically. Key mathematical concepts include vectors and geometric construction. Using GeoGebra commands such as Segment, Point, Polygon, and Rotate, the trajectory of the bullet and the collision effect with the blocks are constructed. Suitable for high school physics and mathematics education.
