A soccer ball is kicked at a 45 degree angle at the top of its path is its acceleration entirely horizontal or vertical or a combination of both?

At the top of it path or anywhere else the Earth's gravity accelerates the ball downward. Regardless what the horizontal mothion is (disregarding air resistance), there are no accelerations after the kick. A ball kicked straight up to the same height will hit the ground at the same time as a ball kicked at 45 degrees.

What kind of graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line?
Acceleration
What do you call the combination of horizontal and vertical axis?
The combination of a horizontal axis and a vertical axis is called a Cartesian coordinate system, or in short, a graph.
When you graph the motion of an object you put on the horizontal axis and on the vertical axis?
On the horizontal axis you would probably plot the time. On the vertical axis you could plot displacement, velocity or acceleration.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on a vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
Constant speed ... zero acceleration.
What is vertical and what is horizontal?
Vertical is up and horizontal is across
If after an object is thrown no other fone and ads on it except gravity What are the vertical and horizontal components of its acceleration vector?
If the object is thrown upwards, the vertical acceleration is negative and the horizontal acceleration is zero.
What is the difference between vertical acceleration and horizontal acceleration?
Vertical means up or down, horizontal means left or right (or forward or backwards, but without changing the altitude).
How do the horizontal components of a projectile motion vary from the vertical components?
Horizontal . . . acceleration is zero, speed is constant Vertical . . . acceleration is 'G' downward, speed constantly increases downward
What is the combination of horizontal motion with constant velocity and vertical motion with constant acceleration?
That combination is called "projectile motion". In the absence of air resistance, its shape is always a parabola.
What kind of graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line?
Acceleration

A bullet dropped versus a bullet fired from a gun which has greater acceleration?
The bullet fired from a gun has greater horizontal acceleration. For vertical acceleration, they are both the same.
Why throwing a ball always put down in curve not in straight?
-- The only horizontal force on a thrown ball is the force of air resistance, so the horizontal acceleration is very small, and the horizontal speed stays almost constant. -- The vertical force on a thrown ball is the force of gravity, so the ball accelerates straight down at the acceleration of gravity. -- The result of unequal horizontal and vertical components of acceleration is a curved path.
How doesn't a vertical force effect a horizontal motion?
You need to know about gravity, forces, velocity, acceleration, and vector.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on a vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
Constant speed ... zero acceleration.
What is vertical and what is horizontal?
Vertical is up and horizontal is across
