Horizontal projectile
This Path of projectile is called Trajectory Oblique projectile
Important NMDCAT points of projectile motion
1. Projectile is 2D motion
2. Path followed by the projectile is called trajectory. 25
3. Trajectory of projectile ➔ parabolic ➔ parabolic path is due to gravity.
4. acceleration at any point during projectile motion is constant and is➔ g.
Assumption # 1 ➔ No air resistance.

2. Initial vertical velocity Vy ➔ V sin Ө

3. Horizontal velocity at any instant ➔ V cos Ө

4. Vertical velocity at any instant Vy ➔ Vsin Ө – gt

5. Magnitude of velocity ➔ V = 𝑽𝒙 + 𝑽𝒚

6. Angle at any instant

Important NMDCAT points of velocity of projectile
1. Velocity of projectile is maximum at point of projection.
2.
44
Horizontal velocity of projectile is constant throughout the journey.
3. Vertical velocity is zero at maximum height.
4. Velocity is lowest at maximum height point.
5. Velocity at maximum height are not zero, just minimum due to zero
vertical velocity.
Velocity at maximum height (summit)
1. V ➔ is minimum and is equal to Vx
2. Vertical velocity = Vy

Important NMDCAT points of velocity of projectile
1. K.E = ½ mv2x ➔ KE is maximum at point of projection and minimum at
maximum height. 46
2. K.E at any point = ½ mv2
3. At time of impact and projection KE are same
4. K.E at submit i.e Kes KEi cos2Ө
