horizontal projectile means to project horizontaly from any height h and it forms equation of parabola if we throw any object it goes horizontal and after this it goes down and by the equation s=ut+1/2at*twe can find following things from it

Ignoring air resistance what is the horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration?
Zero.
The angle of projection of a projectile for which the horizontal range and maximum height are equal?
45 degrees.
A projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to 14.5 times its maximum height What is the angle of projection?
15.42 degrees
What is the angle for maxium altitude?
A baseball, cannonball, or other projectile launched at a 45° angle above the horizon will achieve maximum horizontal range. A projectile launched straight up will achieve maximum altitude, but you kind of have to watch it and be careful when it returns.
How can you used trigonometry in projectile motions?
when a body is thrown at an angle in a projectile motion, the vertical component of the velocity is vcos(B) ..where v is the velocity at which the body is thrown and B represents the angle at which it is thrown.Similarly horizontal component is vsin(B). these components are useful in determining the range of the projectile ,the maximum height reached,time of ascent,time of descent etc.,
What type of motion describes the horizontal component of a projectile?
The type of motion that describes the horizontal component of a projectile is horizontal projectile motion. It is influenced by the downward force of gravity.
What velocity of a projectile is considered to be constant?
horizontal
Which information is needed to determine the horizontal distance a projectile travels?
-- the initial horizontal speed of the projectile -- the time it remains in flight before it hits the ground
A projectile is thrown with an initial velocity which has a horizontal component of 4 m s What will be its horizontal speed after 3s?
A projectile that is thrown with an initial velocity,that has a horizontal component of 4 m/s, its horizontal speed after 3s will still be 4m/s.
What is the direction of oblique projectile at highest point?
Horizontal
What do you need to know to be able to determine how far a projectile travels horizontally?
The horizontal velocity of the projectile (and the air resistance if known) will determine the horizontal distance traveled and the time required.
What is the component of projectile motion is not influenced by gravity?
The horizontal component.
In the absence of air friction does the horizontal component of a projectile?
It typically
What angle for firing projectiles gives longest time?
45 degrees to the horizontal will give the maximum flight time for a projectile. If a projectile was fired at 90 degrees to the horizontal, (straight upwards) the projectile will go straight upwards (ignoring the shape, form and aerodynamic properties of the projectile). Likewise if you were to fire a projectile at 0 degrees to the horizontal, the projectile would follow said course, IF gravity was not in effect; a projectile needs some form of vertical velocity to overcome gravity. Hence why 45 degrees will give you the longest distance and consequently flight time.
Ignoring air resistance what is the horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration?
Zero.
What is Trajectory?
A trajectory is the angle made with the horizontal when a projectile is fired. Suppose the projectile is a cannon ball. Assuming air is frictionless, that cannon ball will travel the greatest distance if the trajectory is 45 degrees from horizontal.
Why horizontal motion is constant?
Horizontal motion is only constant when it is not being affected by any forces, e.g. the horizontal motion of a projectile after it's shot.
