Ballistics is just what it sounds like. A cannon ball was fired over and over and a statistical record was kept. Weight of the ball, powder used and cannon angle. The ball will have straight linear motion with gravity thrown in for fun. You can be traveling in a very straight forward motion, but be falling also. Newton had this all figured out.
because the earth is round like a ball!
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.
Yes. If it is not straight, then it is not a line.
it just a straight line
