As can be seen, the acceleration gradually increases from -9.8 to 0 and then gradually increases from there. The graph looks very similar to the Open Rocket graph. Our next step is integrating Parabolic motion into the simulator. image

Converted the 1D model into a 2D model. The trajectory of the rocket considered is shown below : image

The final output is shown below for launch angle = 10 degrees from the y axis:
