It will travel in a straight line as far as the x and z axises are concerned however in the Y axis the bodies path will be a inverted parabolic.
travel horizontally
if the bal is thrown by making 45 degree angles. with the ground..it will travel maximum distance...
"60" or "sixty"
If it was thrown horizontally, it had an initial velocity of 10 meters/sec parallel to the ground. (It traveled 40 meters in 4 secs with no acceleration. x=vt) It also took 4 secs to travel vertically. It started with a vertical velocity of 0 m/s. Using x=v0 + (1/2) a t2 a = -g ( Acceleration due to gravity 9.8m/s2) x=0-(1/2)g*16 = -8 * 9.8 = -78.4 m It fell 78.4 meters before coming to a stop.
because the earth is round like a ball!
If gravity did not affect a horizontally thrown ball, it would travel in a straight line horizontally at a constant velocity. Gravity only acts vertically, causing the ball to fall towards the ground, so without this vertical force, the horizontal motion would remain unaffected.
travel horizontally
If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall

It would travel in a straight line until air resistance brought it to a standstill. It would then hover at that point - in mid-air forever. If air resistance is also removed from the scenario an even stranger thing will happen. The ball will continue in a straight line forever. But, because of the curvature of the earth, the earth's surface will drop away so that the ball will actually fly off into space. One problem with this thought experiment is that the concept of a "straight" line depends on gravity.
No. The horizontal distance depends on how close the the ground the gun is. From the firing position, a bullet dropped to the ground will strike the ground in the same time as a bullet shot horizontally forward.
The phenomenon of shadows is a demonstration that light rays travel in straight lines. When an object is placed in the path of light, it blocks the light rays traveling to the surface behind it, creating a shadow. The distinct edge of the shadow shows that light travels in straight lines.
Yes, an object will travel farther horizontally if launched from a higher elevation due to having more initial potential energy which can be converted into kinetic energy. This is known as the principle of conservation of energy. So, jumping horizontally from a higher elevation will allow you to travel farther than if you were to jump from ground level.
Something moving perpendicular is traveling in a direction that forms a 90-degree angle with a reference point or axis. This movement creates a right angle with the original path or direction of travel.
The ball will travel the same distance if thrown at an angle of 15 degrees because the range of a projectile thrown at complementary angles (angles that add up to 90 degrees) are the same when air resistance is absent. Therefore, a ball thrown at 15 degrees will reach the same distance as one thrown at 75 degrees.
