Horizontal . . . acceleration is zero, speed is constant

Vertical . . . acceleration is 'G' downward, speed constantly increases downward

How does the gravity affect the two components of projectile motion?

Projectile motion has two components horizontal motion and vertical motion. Gravity affects only the vertical motion of projectile motion.


Which of these components of projectile motion is not influenced by gravity?

Horizontal and vertical components which need to be treated independently from each other when working out either the horizontal or vertical motion.


How does gravity affect the 2 components of projectile motion?

-- Gravity causes the vertical component of projectile motion to vary according to the local acceleration of gravity. -- Gravity has no effect at all on the horizontal component of projectile motion.


How does gravity affect two componets projectile motion?

The vertical motion is accelerated downwards, at a rate of about 9.8 meters per square second. The horizontal motion is not affected. This all assumes that air resistance is insignificant, and can therefore be ignored.


Does the horizontal motion affect the vertical motion of a projectile?

Not if you can ignore air resistance, it doesn't.


How does the unbalanced force of gravity affect the horizontal and vertical velocities of an objects in projectile motion?

well...projectile motion is made of two different motions, or movements- horizontal movement and vertical movement so... i guess that it

Projectile motion involves both a horizontal and a vertical component?

An arc or parabolic curve.

Why is archery a projectile motion?

If any object is given a horizontal push, then it moves under the gravitational pull [vertical]. This combined motions leads to projectile motion. Same way archery too is projectile motion
