Any shape you like. A stone that is thrown is a projectile. A cannonball, arrow, spear, bullet are all projectiles. A projectile s an object all of whose momentum comes at the moment of launch; once it is launched, it travels under that initial momentum and external forces such as gravity and air resistance. There is no "on board" rocket or other means of propulsion.
What else can I help you with?
Is projectile motion two dimension or three dimension?
three dimention
Does a projectile's distance covered decrease when fired at an angle above forty-five degrees?
The optimal angle to fire a projectile if the objective is distance is 45 degrees. It follows that the distance traveled decreases whether the angle is increased or decreased from 45.
What are other forms of the word projectile?
The noun forms are: projectile, and the plural projectiles.The verb forms are: project, projects, projecting, projected.The adjective forms are: the present participle projecting (a projecting nail), and the past participle projected (a projected offer).The present participle of the verb is also a gerund, a verbal noun: projecting.
What is the shape of an acute?
the shape of an acute is V shape.
Is the shape of the egg is definite shape?
It has a definite shape
What are the factors which determine the distance that a projectile will travel?
Factors that determine the distance a projectile will travel include the initial velocity of the projectile, the angle of projection, air resistance, gravity, and the mass and shape of the projectile. Higher initial velocity, lower air resistance, a shallow angle of projection, and a projectile with less mass and streamlined shape tend to result in longer distances.
Does the size and shape of the projectile affect its motion?
Yes, the size and shape of a projectile can affect its motion. A larger, more streamlined projectile will typically experience less air resistance and travel further than a smaller, more irregularly shaped one. Additionally, the mass distribution of a projectile can also impact its stability and trajectory during flight.
True or false Projectiles always have a pointed shape?
False, a projectile is simply something that flies through the air irrespective of its shape. A football is a projectile. footballs are pointed though. Think: NERF bullets.
What is a factor on a firearms maximum projectile range?
Factors include the angle at which it is fired, the speed of the projectile, its shape (ballistic coefficient) the air pressure and humidity.
What factors have a significant impact on a firearms maximum projectile range?
Speed, weight, and shape of the projectile- along with the angle at which the barrel is raised above the horizonatal.
What acceleration affects the motion of a projectile?
The acceleration of gravity affects the motion of a projectile. It causes the projectile to accelerate downward, changing its vertical velocity over time, while the horizontal velocity remains constant (assuming no air resistance). This acceleration determines the shape of the projectile's trajectory.
What is a path a projectile makes?
A projectile follows a curved path called a parabola when it is launched horizontally or at an angle in the air. This path is a result of the combination of the projectile's initial velocity and the force of gravity acting on it. The shape of the path may vary depending on the launch angle and velocity of the projectile.
Why is a projectile a parábola shape?
A projectile follows a parabolic trajectory due to the influence of gravity, which causes it to accelerate downwards. The initial horizontal velocity of the projectile allows it to travel horizontally while falling vertically, resulting in a curved path known as a parabola.
Why path of projectile is parabola?
The path of a projectile is a parabola because the force of gravity acts perpendicular to the initial velocity, causing the projectile to follow a curved trajectory. This curved path results from both horizontal and vertical motion, creating a parabolic shape.
What is the difference between a Parabola and a Trajectory?
Trajectory is the path a projectile follows Parabola is the shape of this path
Which factor has a significant impact on a firearms' maximum projectile range?
Weight, velocity, and shape of the bullet.
Is it true or false that a cannon ball rolling down a slope is considered a projectile?
Since I have read that the path of a projectile is always a parabola, I must say no. The parabolic shape of a projectile's path results from the combination of the force and direction with which it is launched and its weight.A ball rolling down a slope, is not Projectile Motion. While a cannon ball can be used to be a projectile, as far as Physics goes, that is not how it is operating at the moment (rolling down a slope).
