What are the two components of projectile motion?
Back
The two components are horizontal motion and vertical motion. They are independent of each other.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the acceleration of an object in projectile motion?
Back
The acceleration is constant and equal to the acceleration due to gravity, approximately 9.81 m/s² downward.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to the vertical velocity of a projectile at its highest point?
Back
At its highest point, the vertical velocity (v_y) is 0 m/s.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does the horizontal velocity of a projectile change during its flight?
Back
The horizontal velocity remains constant throughout the flight, assuming no air resistance.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the effect of air resistance on projectile motion?
Back
Air resistance opposes the motion of the projectile, reducing its range and altering its trajectory.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
If an object is thrown straight up, what is its velocity at the peak?
Back
