LOVELY JEAN CAYLALUAD JOSHUA ALEN DALE GOMEZ NICOLE JOY CAGANDAHAN JARRY BEN CANIBAS CHRIZELLE CAIDIC PROJECTILE MOTION is a form of motion experienced by an object or particle (a projectile) that is thrown near the Earth’s surface and moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only (in particular, the effects of air resistance are assumed to be negligible). Projectile Motion A projectile is any object upon which the only force is gravity, Projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the influence of gravity, There are no horizontal forces acting upon projectiles and thus no horizontal acceleration, The horizontal velocity of a projectile is constant (a never changing in value), There is a vertical acceleration caused by gravity; its value is 9.8 m/s/s, down, The vertical velocity of a projectile changes by 9.8 m/s each second, The horizontal motion of a projectile is independent of its vertical motion. For Example: you throw the ball straight upward, or you kick a ball and give it a speed at an angle to the horizontal or you just drop things and make them free fall; all these are examples of projectile motion. In projectile motion, gravity is the only force acting on the object. The paths of a cannonball shot at an upward angle.
