For an object to be projectile motion what force must be acting on it?

The correct answer is gravity


What is the only requirement for an object to be in projectile motion?

Gravity must be the only force acting on the object.


For an object to be in projectile motion and what force must be acting on it?

Gravity must be the only force acting on the object, to produce downwards vertical acceleration. There is no force acting in the horizontal direction because there is no acceleration.


How does the downward component of the motion of a projectile compare with the motion of free fall?

well if you think about it free fall is just an object that falls down with no force besides gravity pushing on it. and projectile is also something or an object that has no force acting on it besides gravity. so there pretty alike. that is how they compare.

What is projectile in physics?

An object that is in motion, only acted on by the force of gravity


What force is most responsible for the pathe of an object during projectile motion?

gravity


Does gravity affect the vertical motion of projectile motion?

Yes. Gravity acts downward on a projectile. That is why on Earth, objects eventually start to come down after throwing them, without the force of gravity acting downward the object would continue in a straight line forever.


What is projectile velocity?

Velocity is the time rate of change of displacement of an object. Velocity is the distance travelled in unit time in a stated direction. It is a vector quantity since it gives us both magnitude and direction.


Would there have to be an Unbalanced force acting on moving object?

There would have to be an unbalanced force put an object in motion but once in motion no force is necessary for it to remain in motion


A force acting on an object does no work if?

the force is not in the direction of the objects motion.


How do you produse a change in motion?

Motion requires a force acting upon an object. When the object changes so does motion.
