It is acceleration in the horizontal direction. This would happen as a result of a net horizontal force acting on a body.

What kind of graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line?
Acceleration
Ignoring air resistance what is the horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration?
Zero.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The graph you described is a speed-time plot. If the line is horizontal, that indicates no change in speed over time. In other words, there is no acceleration (acceleration is zero), since there is no change in speed.
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.
A horizontal line on an acceleration graph would indicate?
-- constant acceleration -- speed increasing at a steady rate -- distance increasing as the square of the time since everything started
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.
Horizontal acceleration of the body is detected primarily by the?
utricle
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
A distance time graph for acceleration is always a?
a horizontal line :)
What kind of graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line?
Acceleration
Ignoring air resistance what is the horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration?
Zero.
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.
How would a graph of negative and positive acceleration differ?
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).
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.
Which of the velocity component of projectile changes and other remain constant why?
the horizontal component remain unchanged because there in no acceleration in horizontal direction
A rifle bullet shot horizontally has a vertical acceleration of?
9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 downward.
