Projectile Motion

➡Projectile refers to an object that is in flight after being thrown or projected. In a projectile motion, the only acceleration acting is in the vertical direction which is acceleration due to gravity (g). Equations of motion, therefore, can be applied separately in X-axis and Y-axis to find the unknown parameters.

➡Some examples of Projectile Motion are

• Football
• A baseball
• A cricket ball

The projectile motion consists of two parts – one is the horizontal motion of no acceleration and the other vertical motion of constant acceleration due to gravity. The projectile motion is always in the form of a parabola which is represented as:

Few Examples of Two – Dimensional Projectiles

• Throwing a ball or a cannonball
• The motion of a billiard ball on the billiard table.
• A motion of a shell fired from a gun.
• A motion of a boat in a river.
• The motion of the earth around the sun.
