FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is projectile motion?
Back
Projectile motion is the motion of an object that is thrown into the air and is subject to the force of gravity. It follows a curved path called a trajectory.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are the two components of projectile motion?
Back
The two components of projectile motion are the horizontal component and the vertical component.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does the horizontal velocity of a projectile relate to the velocity of the object it is dropped from?
Back
The horizontal velocity of a projectile dropped from a moving object is the same as the velocity of the moving object.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to the vertical component of a projectile's motion?
Back
The vertical component changes due to the acceleration of gravity, while the horizontal component remains constant.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
If two objects are dropped from the same height, how do their times to hit the ground compare?
Back
If a dropped ball and a ball launched with horizontal velocity start at the same height, they both hit the ground at the same time.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the effect of air resistance on projectile motion?
Back
Air resistance can slow down the projectile and alter its trajectory, but in ideal conditions (without air resistance), the motion can be predicted using basic physics.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the significance of the peak in projectile motion?
Back
The peak is the highest point in the trajectory where the vertical velocity is zero before the object starts descending.
