Question

Which describes an object in projectile motion? Check all that apply. Gravity acts to pull the object down. The object moves in a straight path. The forward velocity of the object is 0 m/s. The object’s inertia carries it forward. The path of the object is curved.

Answer 1

Answers:

A. Gravity acts to pull the object down.

E.    The path of the object is curved.

 The projectile motion is established when an object is thrown near the earth surface due to gravity influence. This path of motion in a plane by the thrown object is called projectile motion. This motion is mainly influenced by the gravitational pull, initial velocities and the angle of inclination in which the projectile is thrown up.
