A projectile (shot from a cannon, for instance) will fly in a curved line and land on the ground, due to the attraction of the Earth's gravity. Snipers have to allow for this curvature effect, and also the side pressure from any wind.

Can a snake move in a straight line?
no a snake cannot move in a straight line as its bones are not stretchable_^^^^^^^^^^&
Math what information is needed to draw a straight line?
2 points. However, the farther apart the 2 points the striaghter the line will be, unless you move the straight edge!!.
Does a particle moving in a straight line have acceleration?
A particle moving in a straight line may or may not have acceleration. Acceleration is adifferent phenomenon altogether. the rate of change of velocity is acceleration, a particle can move in a straight line with a constant velocity thus having no acceleration & it can also move with increasing or decreasing velocities thereby accelerating or deaccelerating.
What is the property of matter that makes it continue to move in a straight line or to remain at rest?
inertia......
What causes can to move in straight-line path?
Inertia - or the absence of any force making it change direction.
True or false Because of earths gravitational pull and their own inertia projectiles travel in a straight path?
False Because gravity is constantly pulling on the projectile while the projectile is trying to move forward in a straight line, the projectile will move in a CURVED path and fall down to earth.

Why most of the object move in a straight line?
By Newton's Second Law, an object with no force on it will continue to move in a straight line with constant velocity.
Can a pawn only move in a straight line?
A pawn moves in a straight line but captures diagonally or by 'En Passant' .
What are some facts about projectiles?
Projectiles can move upward or downward or at an angle to the vertical. The only force on a projectile is gravity.
How do dolphins and fish move differently?
Dolphins move up and down. Fish move mostly in a straight line.
What tries to make planet move in a straight line?
Its inertia.
To slide or move a figure to a new position along a straight line?
to slide or move a figure to a new position along a striaght line
An object will move at a constant speed in a straight line until?
Acted on by a force.
Can you move in a straight line blind folded?
It could be possible it depends on the person
Is it possible to throw a ball in a straight line?
In a theory, it's possible to move any object in a straight line of motion, but in real life, it's physically impossible.
Math what information is needed to draw a straight line?
2 points. However, the farther apart the 2 points the striaghter the line will be, unless you move the straight edge!!.
