A projectile inevitably follows a parabolic path due to the force of gravity unless it has its own propulsion system.

What is the difference between projectile motion and linear motion?

Projectile motion involves an object moving in a curved path under the influence of gravity, while linear motion involves an object moving along a straight path. Projectile motion typically involves both horizontal and vertical components, while linear motion only has motion in one direction.


Is a constant acceleration graph a linear equation?

Not necessarily. The equation of a projectile, moving under constant acceleration (due to gravity) is a parabola - a non-linear equation.


Can projectile has radial and tangential acceleration?

Yes, a projectile can have both radial (centripetal) acceleration and tangential (linear) acceleration. The radial acceleration is directed towards the center of the circular path the projectile follows, while the tangential acceleration is along the direction of motion. Together, these accelerations determine the projectile's overall acceleration as it moves through its trajectory.


Is arrow a linear motion?

No, an arrow's flight path is a combination of linear and projectile motion. While the initial release of the arrow creates a linear motion, gravity acts upon it, causing it to follow a curved path until it reaches its target.
