Projectile Motion

What do you call objects following a trajectory path and is moving in two dimensions?

• Projectile

• Height

• Trajectory

• Range

At what angle can you achieve longest range?

• 25 degrees

• 30 degrees

• 45 degrees

• 60 degrees

What is the relationship between the projection angle and the trajectory height at a constant initial speed?

• Direct

• Indirect

• Inverse

• Joint

How is the angle of release related to range?

• As you increase the angle of release, the range also increases when the initial speed remains constant.

• As you increase the release angle, the range rises to 45 degrees when the initial speed remains constant.

• As you increase the angle of release, the range decreases from 46 degrees to 90 degrees when the initial speed remains constant.

• Both B and C

Which of the following phrases can complete the prompt to make it true? Increasing the initial speed at a constant angle of projection...

• increases the range only of the projectile

• increases the height only of the projectile

• increases the range and height of the projectile

• decreases the range and height of the projectile
