Abstract— The objective of this study is to apply the open source code Python and industrial software MATLAB on the kinematic analysis of a particle with golf or Projectile motion. By achieve this purpose. we integrate the kinematic analysis of the particle with programming capability. It is found that the computer dynamic simulation enables the students to know the representation of kinematics of particles, and realize the graphic representation of basic physical concepts of golf or Projectile motion. The dynamic teaching allows the students to better understand different effects of different curved surfaces, and it is advantageous for the students to know basic academic theories of physics.

Index Terms— Kinematic analysis, open source code, dynamic simulation.
