What is projectile motion?
Circular motion
Linear motion under gravity
Motion of an object thrown into the air with horizontal and vertical components
Rotational motion
Why is the horizontal velocity of a projectile constant?
Gravity acts horizontally
No horizontal forces act on it
Air resistance increases horizontal velocity
The vertical motion cancels the horizontal motion
What determines the time of flight for a projectile?
Horizontal velocity
Vertical motion
Air resistance
Launch angle
What is the trajectory of a projectile?
A straight line
A circle
A parabola
A hyperbola
In projectile motion, what is the value of vertical velocity at the maximum height?
Zero
Maximum
Same as horizontal velocity
Depends on the initial angle
What determines the horizontal range of a projectile?
The initial vertical velocity only
The initial horizontal velocity and time of flight
The angle of projection only
Gravity alone
What type of acceleration acts on a projectile during its motion?
Horizontal acceleration only
Vertical acceleration only
Both horizontal and vertical acceleration
No acceleration acts on a projectile
