● A cannonball travels in a curved path as it is fired from
thecannon,notinastraightline.Thisisduetotheangleatwhichtheshotis
fired which allows the ball to move both vertically and
horizontallyatonce.

IMPORTANCEOFPROJECTILEMOTION
Understandingprojectilemotionisimportanttomanyengineeringdesigns.Any
engineered design that includes a projectile, an object in motion closeto
the Earth's surface subject to Gravitational acceleration, requires
anunderstandingofthephysicsinvolvedinprojectilemotion
